First look at Shao Kahn, Kitana and Johnny Cage in ‘Mortal Kombat 2'.

I've waited ...25 years to play this!

Exactly. He's supposed to be a Universal entity. I mean, they went to great lengths to show how strong Hercules is: So it's a good way to scale him pitted against the Devourer of Worlds.

Arty Farty time and a classic scene from Hercules #4 (1982).. Wherein Hercules learns the valuable lesson: There's always a bigger fish

Weird that she took this long, really🤔

So Arty Farty time again and yes, two of my favourites: Magneto and Legion. I was talking to someone recently who asked how Mutants could be made to standout in the MCU. As above, I think the optimal approach is to invert the previous MCU trope IE don't nerf them. Make them seem all powerful and in doing so, something to fear.

Reed's characterisation (and interplay with Susan) has come a long way..

It isn't just a bad Superhero film. It is a bad film full stop. Yes there is a specific scene wherein Kate Mara's hair actively changes between shots. Considering there are some strong actors in the film. They are effectively glitter on a turd.

Better FF comparison (sadly missing John Kransinski)

Meanwhile, for comparison:

Reminds me of Suikoden. 108 recruited characters. You take six into the final area.😄

Cutscene death in RPG's that have otherwise literal resurrection mechanics in-game.

Last year gave us Godzilla vs. the Justice League. This year the King of the monsters jumps to Marvel..

Fighter's Destiny 3 - Remembering that Nintendo does have a non-Smash fighting game series of it's own. New Star Fox - A new console instalment that finally moves beyond Star Fox 64/Lylat Wars and it's formula. New 3D Mario - It's a given for a new console release New Wave Race - The outlier. But it's always been a fun yet different racing series.

That reminds me of the Whitby chapter in Dracula. I skimmed through it in the end.

So during my teenage years, wherein my love of comics was established. There was a local comic book shop in the high street. I went there whenever I had money of my own. I thought I owned loads of comics, back in the day. It's funny now to see they basically fill a small hold all bag. But at one stage, the owner was given promo posters for the big event of that summer: Onslaught. I expressed a huge interest in the main poster he received, at the time. A year or so later, the shop was closing down. The owner was moving to bigger premises in another town. On the last day, he calls me to the till and hands me the immaculately preserved, now folded, poster. For free. "As a valued customer". I was beaming. Ironically, I loved the poster too much. Mum attached it to the bedroom wall ..permanently, with glue. A bedroom redecoration or two later and it was lost forever. Why mention this now? I recently found the artwork online and thought I would share: The original piece had huge font at the bottom, which read: Onslaught is here! No one is safe.
