Welcome to the weekend! Let's jump into the Saturday edition of Weekend Discussion.


Mars Attacks

A totally different reimagining of the Martian Manhunter and I'm kinda here for it.


Dormammu, I've come to bargain

Coming off a mammoth casting reveal that somehow doesn't include Benedict Cumberbatch, Marvel takes a moment to recall one of the MCU's all-time greatest moments.


Sunder, folks!

Day9 is giving Sunderfolk a shot with a few of his Twitch buddies.


Ker-Plok!

Grand POOBear's Unbeatable series takes him to... a game I've never heard of.


Weekend Grooves

Take us home... Evanescence? (Sorry, let me check what year this is...)


That's it for this Weekend Discussion! We're excited to hear from you, so join the conversation and dive into the Shacknews Chatty comment thread below. If you want to go new school and find different ways to leave your feedback or talk about whatever, join us in the Official Shacknews Community Discord. I'll see you all next week!

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

      I've kinda glanced at these Absolute Batman/Superman titles (just videos talking about them). I don't like the core storyline - it's another Universe Reboot. The individual titles seem OK though I haven't bought in.
      J'onn Jo'nzz might get me though; that last Martian Manhunter maxi-series (2019 - 12 issues) by Steve Orlando / Riley Rossmo was really good. Also this Rodriguez art is kinda off-kilter like that one was. Very Paul Pope/Jim Mahfood casually cool.
