Even though the Marvel Cinematic Universe is now incredibly popular, the Avengers comics have always been the heart of the franchise. Over the years, the team has gone through many different phases, each with its own ups and downs. Here are five of the best eras in Avengers comic book history, and why they’ve captured the hearts of so many fans.
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the movie The Dog Stars will now be released on August 28, 2026, instead of its original date of March 27, 2026. Disney also shifted its release schedule around, moving the horror sequel Ready or Not 2 into the March slot previously held by The Dog Stars.
Both Ne Zha and its sequel, Ne Zha 2, are now streaming on HBO Max in the US. Originally planned for Christmas Eve, the second movie arrived on the service a few days ahead of schedule – good news for fans, though there is a slight catch.
Even though Cameron has worked on many different projects, he’s still most passionate about science fiction. He started his career in the genre, directing the popular sequel Aliens and creating The Terminator series. He eventually wants to go back to his beginnings by remaking the 1966 film Fantastic Voyage.
HBO Max announced its January 2026 schedule, and a highlight is the movie Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans. This film brings together the original Teen Titans series and its more recent reboot for the first time, and will be available to stream on January 1st. Interestingly, the movie was previously on HBO Max but was taken down for a period of time.
The animated movie KPop Demon Hunters became a huge hit after being released on Netflix on June 20, 2025. It quickly broke records, becoming Netflix’s most-watched animated film by July 29th, and the most-watched movie overall by August 26th. By September 3rd, KPop Demon Hunters had even surpassed Squid Game to become the most-watched title on Netflix of all time, despite only playing in theaters for 10 days.
IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak announced on Bluesky that the game is now completely playable. The extra development time will be used to improve and polish the game, ensuring it’s the best it can be when it releases. Abrak described the project as the company’s most ambitious yet, larger in scope than the Hitman series, and believes this extra time will help deliver a high-quality experience for players from the start.
I recently watched an episode of The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball that was full of fun nods to Dragon Ball. In the episode, called “The Synthesis,” two characters, Nicole and Yuki, go to their daughters’ career day hoping to make a good impression, but things don’t go as planned. They end up fusing together – just like characters do in Dragon Ball using both the fusion dance and Potarra earrings! They even created a new character, “Nicoshida,” and the animation style briefly shifted to look like classic anime, complete with a narrator who sounded straight out of Dragon Ball Z. It was a really clever and entertaining tribute to the series.
I’m excited to share that Digimon Beatbreak is finally getting an English dub! Crunchyroll announced it will start streaming the dubbed version on December 27th. They’re launching with a big premiere – the first five episodes will be available all at once. After that, new episodes will continue to be released alongside the original Japanese version. You can find a trailer for the English dub below.
I first discovered Meat Boy way back on Newgrounds, a classic Flash game site. Then in 2010, Super Meat Boy officially launched and totally blew my mind – it really grabbed me and a lot of other hardcore platforming fans. The characters – Meat Boy, Band-Aid Girl, and even Dr. Fetus – switched things up with an autorunner style in Super Meat Boy Forever. But now, they’re taking their biggest leap yet with Super Meat Boy 3D coming out next year, and I can’t wait!
