This honestly might be the best thing to come out of Solo: A Star Wars Story, given the movie managed to kill off most of the other good things about it.

Move over, Doctor—there’s a new pilot at the TARDIS console room controls, and a lifetime’s temping in Chiswick has prepared her to be the universe’s greatest defender.

There is a moment in Spider-Man: Far From Home with Mysterio that is one of the most audaciously cool-looking things I’ve ever seen in a Marvel movie. But as good as it is, it still isn’t my favorite take on the character outside of comics.

The one direction Mr. Styles is headed in? Under the sea, apparently.

It’s SDCC week! Yes, we are just days away from the biggest event in the nerdy calendar kicking off—filled with exciting news, jam-packed panels, remarkable cosplay, and, hell yes, so many ways to empty your wallet on shiny, exclusive toys and merchandise. Heading to San Diego with your piggy bank? Here are our…

We’ve met Geralt of Rivia. We’ve met some of his closest allies. Now, it’s time to meet the most important character of all in Netflix’s adaptation of the Andrzej Sapkowski fantasy series The Witcher: this horse.

The Barbie movie has found some very interesting writers. Filming has begun on A Quiet Place 2. Melissa Benoist will slip into the director’s chair for Supergirl’s next season. Plus, what’s to come on Agents of SHIELD and Legion, and a new look at the direct-to-video Doom movie. Spoilers now!

On the next season of Supergirl, Kara Danvers is following in her cousin’s footsteps. This time it’s less about the kind of hero she wants to be, and more about...upgrading from a skirt to a full on superhero onesie?

Timothy Zahn’s return to his most famous creation, Grand Admiral Thrawn, has been one of the consistent highlights of the new canon of Star Wars under Disney. So far we’ve got to see Thrawn’s early days in the Empire and a fateful encounter between him and Anakin Skywalker, and io9 can now give you an exclusive look…

Archie Horror’s bold crossover between its Jughead werewolf series The Hunger and the Veronica vampire tale Vampironica has already given us a slap-up supernatural war with the Riverdale kids caught in the crossfire. But io9 has a wild look inside this weeks issue that could change the series—and Archie Comics…

Meanwhile, Frank Grillo teases and then immediately denies his own Marvel movie future. Melissa Benoist discusses a new costume upgrade for Kara on Supergirl. The Simpsons will pastiche Stranger Things in this year’s Treehouse of Horror. The Mortal Kombat movie reboot will be as gory as you hope it should be. Plus,…

Considering the movie is essentially an unnecessary computerized do-over of the beloved original, why not just...stay at home and listen to the soundtrack instead? At least this way you’ll get all the Beyoncé you need without a trip to the cinema.

Welcome back to Toy Aisle, io9's regular round up of the latest in cool merchandise. This week, we’ve got another hit of San Diego Comic-Con exclusives, Barbie gets ziggy with it, and a bear! In a cage! Check it out.

Satan? So out. Creepy cults? So in.

For years, Jason Aaron’s stewardship of the Thor ongoing has built up to War of the Realms. It’s a delivery on not just endless teases about an all-out scrap even mightier than punching an alien made of hate specifically out to murder Asgardians, but the culmination of personal arcs across so many Thor characters,…

Always in motion, the future is. But one thing we should probably not be surprised to hear about in this era of more Star Wars than ever, is that we’re getting more Star Wars.

Magic: The Gathering might be about flinging spells and summoning creatures to also fling at your opponent—well, doing that through the medium of more delicately putting cards down on a table—but its the spell-flingers themselves, the Planeswalkers, that are the stars of this gorgeous new art book.

Don Cheadle could be joining Space Jam 2. Kristen Schaal will come from the future in Bill & Ted 3. Tim Miller has vague thoughts about Sonic the Hedgehog’s new redesign. Plus, a better look at Killer Frost’s new costume on The Flash, details on the end of iZombie, and a new adult-oriented...Flintstones? It’s spoilin’…

We have been waiting an infinity—okay, more like three-ish years—since Owen Dennis’s original Infinity Train short came out of the Cartoon Network Artist Program and immediately dazzled us. But at long last, we now know that the full series is going to start airing on Cartoon Network next month.

When it comes to manga and anime adaptations, 3D has a bit of a bad rap—sometimes for good measure, when it’s used as a clumsy shorthand around traditional animation.
