Read excerpt
Episode Summary Avengers: Endgame is back in theaters with a new ending, and it puts Loki on Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter's doorstep as the MCU's answer to Doctor Doom. Frank breaks down the leaked Encore Edition scenes, then sits down with Keith Arem and Chris Yates, the writers behind Danny Trejo's cursed-conquistador comic Year of the Devil. The Encore leaks include a TVA post-credit scene where incursions multiply into the thousands and a visit from Doom to Bruce Banner's underground lab, a
BlizzCon 2026 | World of Warcraft Forever, Diablo 5, and a StarCraft Set for 2030 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
BlizzCon 2026 handed out a StarCraft open world shooter that does not land until 2030, a Diablo 5 release window in spring 2029, and a plan to turn World of Warcraft Classic into something called World of Warcraft Forever. Frank and Squeaks were both on the floor for all of it, and they came back with announcement reactions, three hour lines, a Todd McFarlane signature, and Matt Mercer running an Overwatch tabletop game in front of 8,000 people.

The John Stewart flashback rewrites his origin, leaves Hal Jordan looking like a jerk, and puts fear, race, and family expectation at the center of what it takes to carry a ring. Then the guys move to the GTA 6 gameplay reveal that Rockstar dropped on Netflix before YouTube. Ten years of development, a two billion dollar budget, an 80
Two Dooms, One Feige, and a Pirate Queen (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Avengers: Doomsday trailer has fans convinced there are two Doctor Dooms in this movie, and that one of them might not be Robert Downey Jr. at all. Frank and Squeaks break down the eye color, the two suits, and the Cillian Murphy voice theory, then look at what happens to Marvel when Kevin Feige's contract runs out in 2027. From there it turns into a full state of the franchises. The Feige succession list runs from Brad Winderbaum to Louis D'Esposito to one genuine wild card pick, before Sta
