Absolute Superman #18, written by Jason Aaron and illustrated by Rafa Sanoval, begins in Ancient Egypt. We meet Teth-Adam, a young slave suffering under a harsh pharaoh – a story many comic book readers and fans of the DC Extended Universe will recognize.

The new Aldis Hodge series has the potential to run for many years, thanks to the wealth of additional Alex Cross novels that could be adapted. However, it might not have been made at all if the 2022 series Reacher hadn’t been such a hit. Reacher, now in its fourth season, has become a prime example of popular, feel-good television for a broad audience.
Julianne Nicholson might not be a powerful figure in real life, but she brilliantly portrays one on television. In the series Paradise, created by Dan Fogelman, Nicholson plays Samantha Redmond, who’s earned the nickname “Sinatra” due to the commanding presence she projects – a blend of strength and charm. This allows her to build and lead a secret underground city for a select group of people who survived a worldwide disaster that temporarily turned the Earth’s surface into a desolate area. Nicholson herself prefers the nickname for her character, telling Vulture, “I call her Sinatra. That name is just so fitting. It’s hard to think of her as Samantha – Samantha feels too ordinary.”
