Ted Turner, the founder of Cartoon Network, was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia shortly before turning 80. This brain disorder contributed to his hospitalization in 2025 after he developed pneumonia. Known early in his career as “The Mouth of the South,” Turner built a successful entertainment company based in Atlanta, Georgia. He was also a longtime sports owner, having purchased the Atlanta Braves baseball team in 1976 and later selling it to Time Warner.

Interestingly, he also mentioned that NetherRealm Studios is working on more than just another Mortal Kombat game. They have “a lot of projects in development,” which could include expanding their storytelling into other forms of media, like movies or TV shows, beyond video games.

Thanos was the central villain throughout the Infinity Saga in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and his portrayal made him a truly memorable antagonist. Now, Marvel seems to be aiming for the same level of impact with Doctor Doom, who will be the primary villain in upcoming movies like Doomsday and likely Secret Wars. However, unlike the comics, the MCU version of Doom won’t have a long-established, complex relationship with Reed Richards, which has disappointed many fans.

The next season of House of the Dragon will be crucial for regaining fan support after some changes from the source material were criticized, even by author George R.R. Martin himself. While action will still be a part of the show, it needs to drive the characters’ development and the overall story, a hint of which is visible in the newly released poster for Season 3. The poster features key characters – including Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy), Daemon (Matt Smith), Jacaerys (Harry Collett), Baela (Bethany Antonia), Rhaena (Phoebe Campbell), Corlys (Steve Toussaint), Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney), Helaena (Phia Saban), Alicent (Olivia Cooke), and Aemond (Ewan Mitchell) – gathered around the Iron Throne.

2026 has seen some amazing team-ups, like the Superman and Spider-Man comics, so expectations were high for this one. Thankfully, the first issue delivers! It’s a fantastic start and suggests the Justice League and Sonic are going to create something truly special.

So, as Digital Foundry originally pointed out, the game was actually running internally at 864p, and then using something called PSSR2 to stretch that up to 4K. It’s basically a clever trick to make the game look like it’s native 4K, but it’s not quite the same thing.

Build A Rocket Boy recently announced another round of layoffs, with several employees sharing the news, including lead technical designer James Tyler, audio designer Tom Cross, QA analyst Gary Iain Gough, and level designer Leah Philpot.

The Bulletin set is unique and instantly recognizable, with its walls covered in recreated newspaper headlines from the Daredevil series. These headlines were clearly made with care, as Marvel Television actually auctioned them off in 2020. They cover events like the Battle of New York and the Hulk’s destruction in Harlem, and surprisingly, even include a reference to Agents of SHIELD.

Set far in the future, If Destruction Be Our Lot takes place on an Earth where humans are extinct and robots have become the dominant life form. These self-governing, intelligent machines continue to carry out the tasks they were originally programmed for, including Abe, a robot modeled after Abraham Lincoln. Abe begins to wonder about the meaning of existence when he realizes that without humans, all the machines’ work feels pointless. This comic is a fantastic story, blending clever satire with genuine heart, and is one of the best new releases of 2026.

The exciting team-up between Marvel’s Spider-Man and Ultraman, which started in 2024, is wrapping up with chapter 43. Artist Tomo Hirokawa announced on social media that this chapter concludes the current story arc. Don’t worry, the series isn’t over! It will continue focusing solely on Ultraman. Hirokawa explained that episode 43, titled Ultraman Along Came a Spider-Man, is now available and concludes the story covered in volume 4 of the comics, with the next episodes marking the beginning of volume 5 and a new focus on Ultraman. While the story has reached a natural ending point, there’s another reason why this Marvel/Ultraman crossover is concluding.
