UntilAvengers: Endgame, I always felt that the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s downfall was that it strayed away from death far too often. Yes, this is family entertainment but for these films to work, there has to be a sense of peril. Advert Advert Of course, there was the odd death from time to time, but it felt like the balance really shifted when The Infinity Saga drew to a close.

Marvel quietly waves goodbye to Thor as new Avengers lineup announced

Thor’s future is very uncertain, both in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and in the world of Marvel Comics. A fifth Thor film is yet to be greenlit, although it’s rumoured that this may be one of the ‘untitled projects’ inMarvel’s slate.

Pokémon TCG Pocket preview: A new way to catch ‘em all

Ever since its announcement on Pokémon Day (27 February) earlier this year, I’ve been somewhat excited about finally going hands on withPokémon TCG Pocket. I’ve loved the physical card game for decades, but the one-to-one digital replicaPokémon TCG Livenever really appealed to me.
