X-Men '97 feels like kind of a mess this season, huh

Not every UB set is for me, but the one where I get to say "Carol Kane Magic Card" out loud absolutely is

Here's my review of Star Wars Visions Presents: The Ninth Jedi, easily the best on-screen Star Wars we'll get this year, and perhaps my favorite vision of the Jedi the galaxy far, far away has ever been able to muster. It's great!

'The Ninth Jedi' Is a 'Star Wars' Remix at Its Grandest Scale

'Visions' returns to one of its most intriguing short stories for a thrilling, full-length 'Star Wars' saga.

Disney Plus will host ‘thoughtfully curated’ fan-made videos starting in the US. www.theverge.com/streaming/97...

I've seen, and had a great time with, The Ninth Jedi, which feels like a proper sci-fantasy epic: less so a vision of something new, but a remix of what Star Wars can be at its brightest, firing on all cylinders to deliver a thrilling space opera adventure. Full review in my newsletter later today!

Let's talk about that Marvel, girl (Big spoilers, obviously)

Raise You, Like a Phoenix

Wearing our vintage misery/No, I think it looked a little better on me.

It's honestly kind of crazy how much Brand New Day takes from Insomniac's games for its action. There's a shot at one point in a setpiecd that felt so much like it'd be a QTE in one of them, right down to the framing of the shot leaving enough space for the UI.

Hayes Madsen@solfleet.bsky.social · 3d ago

I knew seeing Brand New Day would make me redownload Insomniac's Spider-Man (a game I've beaten six times) and, well, here we are

The saw me eyeing the Early Days set and "shit, have the rest on us" Having shiny updated versions of both the film continuity and the shows is gonna be a treat

Patlabor: The TV Series! The entire classic TV series featuring comedy, drama, and procedural action is returning! Subbed & dubbed. And the dub is uncut for this set. Plus video has been decently improved over prior releases.

Oh Captain Padraig, I missed your endless Scottish screaming

it mostly involves yelling "HYUR I COME, READY OR GORMOTTI" to myself

whether or not I'm playing a xenoblade game is directly correlated with how many times I've attempted a welsh accent in the last 24 hours

Oh also I take back supporting this review because that was NOT Madame Web's iconic pepsi cola sign as seen in the hit motion picture Madame Web

They finally let Tom Holland get and act like Spider-Man! One day they'll let him do that in a movie of his own.

Immediately seeing this look so clean and running at 60fps is making my head spin Xenoblade Chronicles 2 supremacy for one thousand years

Today's newsletter blog is about the big D&D Universes Beyond announcements, and why as someone who's largely enjoyed them in Magic, I'm a bit warier about how they'll work in D&D form—even if they're starting with a one-two punch designed to kill me, specifically

Universes Beyond Has Come for 'Dungeons & Dragons'

'Magic: The Gathering' crossovers have made Hasbro a lot of money. Now they're turning their eyes to 'Dungeons & Dragons,' and I'm not sure it'll work.
