Finally, the Batman Forever Toys Someone Somewhere Probably Dreamed Of

I’m kidding, these things are awesome. They were briefly spotted in the wild back in 2019, but Hot Toys has finally released official pics of its 1:6-scale action figures of Batman and Robin from 1995’s Batman Forever, and, as usual, they’re preternaturally good—right down to the nipples. Not the Bat-nipples, however, just the Robin-nipples. That’s because…

These ’80s West Coast Avengers Comics May Be the Key to Solving WandaVision‘s Mysteries

With the Scarlet Witch and Vision’s romantic history in Marvel’s comics being the enthralling, convoluted mess that it is, there was a wealth of source material for WandaVision’s creative team to draw from while conceiving the story for Disney+.

Once a mainstay of giant desktop workstations, trackballs were eventually miniaturized and stuck inside computer mice, and then mostly replaced with trackpads and touchscreens.
