Get ready to go deja vu with the 1990's, as a fan-favorite character and former Scarlet Spider will once again return to take back to the mantle of Spider-Man this October! After Nick Spencer's run on Amazing Spider-Man concludes this September, Ben Reilly will lay claim to becoming THE Spider-Man in the pages of "The Amazing Spider-Man #75" - with the creative team of Zeb Wells, Kelly Thompson, Saladin Ahmed, Cody Ziglar, and Patrick Gleason - and the book will be three times a month to boot!

The Flash movie director Andy Muschietti teases Michael Keaton's Batman with bloody Batsuit

 


It movies director Andy Muschietti is pretty busy directing Ezra Miller's solo superhero film "The Flash" -- which will feature the return of Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ Batman from the 1989 movie of the same name, and to tease that return we get an image from his Instagram that sees the familiar classic Batsuit looking very much like how The Comedian's badge was splashed with blood. The film will also see Ben Affleck's Batman return as well, though how he fits is still a mystery.

What the bloody '89 batsuit means we won't know until the film comes out, but it might be a sign of bad things... Maybe a Crisis among other things.

The Flash is scheduled to be released on November 4, 2022.

The King of Fighters XV has been delayed to 2022

 


KOF Fans who have waiting for the newest sequel in SNK's fighting game series will have to wait a little longer for the next installment in the series, as the company has made the difficult decision to delay The King of Fighters XV to the first quarter of 2022 due to the rising cases of COVID 19 happening in the country.

Via the official website of SNK, KOF XV producer Yasuyuki Oda delivered a message to the fans. 

There are many fans who are anticipating the release of KOF XV in 2021, however at this point in time, we unfortunately have to announce that KOF XV will now be launching within the 1st quarter of 2022. 

 

The development timeline we set out to reach in the beginning has been affected by the ever-still rising cases of COVID-19 within Japan. We have made the ultimate decision in the end that the product’s quality must come first, and so with that decision comes an altered release window.

We sincerely ask for your kind patience and understanding as our development teams continue to work hard on KOF XV as we draw closer to its release.

The King of Fighters XV will now be released some time in Q1 2022.
