Our First Look at the Second Season of Arcane!
Arcane: League of Legends came out of nowhere a few years ago and was an awesome-as-hell show! And thankfully, the wait for a second season is almost over because, I believe, it might be coming out later this year! Woohoo! And to herald that second season, here is a short teaser of a clip.
Who is that giant monster? It’s probably Vander, the father figure character from the first batch of episodes. There were apparently hints that he might still be alive in that mad scientist’s lab, and he’d make a fearsome foe in season two. Personally, I’m not a fan of bringing him back. Let the past stay in the past and let our main characters move forward on their own. But I trust the creators to make an awesome season 2.
And like that video says, it comes out in November!

Echo is Looking Pretty Fierce
Everybody thought Echo wasn’t going to be much of anything. Marvel is dropping all 5 episodes at the same time next Tuesday, and many took that as a sign that Marvel wanted to get rid of this show as soon as possible. But honestly, they’ve been doing a great job with promoting how badass Echo might be.
Check out this new trailer, which obviously focuses on Kingpin, but it’s still good.
And then we’ve got a behind-the-scenes featurette on how they incorporated Echo’s Native American heritage, which is cool.
I’m a fan of almost everything the MCU puts out, so I’m very much looking forward to binging Echo next week. Hopefully it lives up to the awesomeness of these promotional trailers. Keep the hope alive, everybody! Hold on to that feeling!
All 5 episodes of Echo come out on Disney+ on Tuesday, Jan. 9.

My 6 Most Anticipated Pop Cultures of 2024
Happy New Year, everybody! Happy 2024! This year is going to be a good year for me. I’m losing weight. I’ve got some self-published comic book stuff coming up. My New Year’s Resolution is to finally master this banana bread recipe I’ve been dying to make, but kept putting off. And we’ve got…an acceptable amount of cool movies, TV shows and games coming up. Let’s talk about them.
Looking ahead, there isn’t much to be excited about in pop culture, to be honest. Not like last year, when we had a ton of great video games on the horizon, and a lot of movie potential. This year doesn’t have a whole lot. But I took a look around and have made a list anyway! There are some things I’m excited about and looking forward to, with my hopes up. So why not share?
Join me after the jump for six bits of pop culture I’m looking forward to in the new year. And feel free to share your own hopes and dreams for the year ahead in the comments below!

My 6 Favorite Things of 2023
Who could imagine that the end of another year has come. I turned 40 this year, and life is what it is. My job got a lot busier, my bank account got a lot smaller, and I’ve got a few different comic projects in the works! More on that later. For now, it’s time to celebrate my favorite pop culture media from the past year.
As always, I don’t listen to music, so I don’t have any favorite songs from the year. Mostly I’m here to talk about video games, movies, TV show and comics, my favorite hobbies! I’ve thrown in a couple of other entries to get up to six, because a man has a theme.
So join me after the jump for my favorite bits from pop culture in the past year. And feel free to share your own favorite things from the past year in the comments below!

The new season of Marvel’s What If…? cartoon starts today! It’s available on Disney+ as we speak! I really enjoyed the first season, and I have high hopes for this second season. Marvel is still good to me and I’m happy to watch. I’ll probably binge some of the episodes this weekend when I head out of town to visit family for Christmas.
Here’s a very brief trailer/ad that came out yesterday about today’s debut.
Yeah, that trailer heavily implies that What If…? will start “tomorrow”, but I assure you, that trailer came out yesterday. What If…? starts today! So go watch.
I’m most excited to see the new, 1980s era Avengers. I even bought the Goliath Marvel Legends action figure because I think it’s neat that he gets to exist in cartoon and toy form only. So we’ll see how that episode goes.
