Refresh for updates: Disney/20th Century Studios’ New Mutants got an early jump on the weekend last night, grossing $750K in a pandemic marketplace where only 62% of all movie theaters are open.

While the villain, born Maxwell Lord IV, has made appearances in other forms of media before (including the animated series Justice League Unlimited, Season 9 of Smallville, and on Supergirl), he will be making his official feature debut in Wonder Woman 1984.

The Apple and Samsung rivalry is a decade old and the iPhone 11 Pro and Galaxy Note 20 show how each company attempts to eclipse the other and that story continues to play out every year to the delight and benefit of consumers.

Oh boy, I do not want to be in those arsonists’ shoes. It’s bad enough dealing with Swamp Thing’s wrath when he’s at a more standard height, but at that large size, it’s even more the stuff of nightmares. As mentioned earlier, Edge of Tomorrow’s Doug Liman was once attached to direct Justice League Dark,

In the [MC2 Universe](https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/GeraldDrew(Earth-982), for instance, Gerald Drew (or “Gerry”) is given powers in a similar way to how Jessica Drew does, eventually taking over for

The recently confirmed Gotham Knights may look like another in a long line of would-be Destiny follow-ups at first glance, but the game is instead highly focused on a choice between offline single-player and two-player online co-op experiences.

3. Mark L (Avengers: Infinity War) I, on the other hand, favor the one with nanotechnology over either of those. Not only does this Iron Man armor, introduced in Avengers: Infinity War, blow Tony Stark’s “Suitcase Suit” out of the water in portability (conveniently housed in a detachable unit he keeps on his chest), it
