The show was popular for many reasons. It uniquely combined fantasy and science fiction, offering something different from other programs. He-Man was a likable hero, and Skeletor was the perfect villain – clearly motivated and simply evil.
Mark Grayson has survived many life-threatening fights, but his battle with Conquest at the end of Invincible season 3 was particularly brutal. Their recent rematch was even more difficult to watch, and included what many fans are calling the show’s most disturbing scene so far – which is fitting, considering Conquest’s merciless nature.
I’m aiming to portray Thragg authentically, and I’m focusing on what resonated with Robert Kirkman and Simon Racioppa. I’ve observed they were most engaged when they could feel his motivations – his desires, his fear of losing things, and his overall ambition – through my performance.
D&D Beyond’s latest Unearthed Arcana introduces four new character options: the Pestilence Domain cleric, Circle of the Titan druid, Hell Knight fighter, and Demonic Sorcery sorcerer.

Before its premiere on April 8th, The Testaments is already receiving a lot of positive buzz. Early reviews are in, and they’re overwhelmingly favorable, giving the show an 87% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Fans are looking forward to both Ready Player One and its sequel, Ready Player Two, with the first book already getting a movie adaptation. Now, both novels will be adapted into graphic novels before the second movie comes out, and people are already getting excited about these new versions.
Eric Kripke, the creator of Supernatural, launched the show in 2005 and led it for the first five seasons before moving on to The Boys. The two series remain connected, with several Supernatural actors – like Jim Beaver, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Rob Benedict – appearing in The Boys. But getting Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles to join the cast is especially exciting. Kripke has been planning this for a while, ever since Ackles debuted as Soldier Boy in Season 3, playfully referring to it as his version of collecting Pokémon. Season 5 of The Boys will finally bring his vision to life, uniting actors from both shows.
Cyberpunk is currently very popular, with several highly anticipated shows coming to major streaming platforms. Prime Video’s Blade Runner: 2099 and Apple TV’s adaptation of William Gibson’s Neuromancer are two examples. Interestingly, despite this growth, Prime Video previously cancelled the well-regarded cyberpunk series, The Peripheral.
Before a screening of A24’s new film, The Drama, attendees were given a polite request, styled like wedding instructions, not to share a key, shocking moment from the movie. The card asked everyone to keep the plot a secret until after the film’s release, much like asking guests to refrain from taking photos during a wedding ceremony.
As a big Seinfeld fan, I always come back to this George line – it just nails what makes him such a hilariously flawed and brilliant character. But honestly, it’s become more than just a funny moment. Looking back, it feels strangely spot-on about the world we’re living in now, which is kind of wild.
