Stephen King’s books are all connected by a central, overarching story: the Dark Tower series. While primarily a fantasy western, the series touches on nearly every genre imaginable, and King cleverly weaves connections to it throughout his work. He does this using a subtle, often unnoticed, Easter egg: the number 19. This simple detail can quickly appear in his stories, confirming a link to the world of The Dark Tower.

The Bat-Family in DC Comics is known for its incredibly skilled fighters. This ranking focuses on how well each member has mastered different combat techniques and weapons.

With so many characters and storylines, it’s not surprising that some have been left behind in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Keeping stories going for so long is challenging, and things don’t always work out as expected. Changes in production schedules, script revisions, and even actors’ availability can cause characters to fade away. While many characters are missing, these five deserve a return.

Here’s a comparison of the eight games coming to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium in June 2026. Unlike previous months, these games will be added to the service throughout the month, rather than all at once.

Not all creative attempts succeed. Occasionally, ideas simply don’t resonate with audiences, forcing publishers to discontinue them. Here are seven times DC Comics tried something new that unfortunately didn’t work out and caused more issues than benefits.

Even though many people consider them classics, the Lord of the Rings films aren’t without their faults. While fans readily discuss problems with The Hobbit movies or the show The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, they often treat the original trilogy as flawless. However, the first three films did have weaknesses – for example, one army was depicted as being far too powerful.

It’s funny to me how much I enjoy virtual fishing, considering I actually dislike it in real life. While I find sitting by a river or on a boat for hours boring, I can easily spend an entire evening fishing within a video game – and many others feel the same way! Some of the most popular fishing systems in games have built dedicated communities where players take catching rare fish just as seriously as finishing the main game. It’s even amusing that these mini-games sometimes become more popular than full-fledged fishing games like Dredge and Dave the Diver. The following five games perfectly illustrate this phenomenon with their surprisingly engaging fishing mechanics.

Connecting a DualSense controller to a computer can be tricky, but a dedicated developer is trying to improve compatibility.

As a huge Star Wars fan, one of the things I always enjoy is how each new show or movie introduces fresh elements – usually with some fantastic new starships! But it’s also great when they connect to what we already know and love. Like, seeing the N-1 Starfighter from the prequels appear in The Mandalorian was a real treat. And The Mandalorian & Grogu is doing that again; not only do we get more of the Razor Crest (thank goodness!), but it’s finally bringing some ships that have been part of the official story for ages to life on screen. It’s exciting to see these previously unseen vessels actually fly!
