Deadpool was a bigger hit than anybody expected, taking a lewd, violent, subversive comic book anti-hero and making a joyfully irreverent movie out of him. The sequel is already one of the most anticipated films of 2018, and although Deadpool 2 doesn’t start shooting until June, we’ve already got a teaser; in the US, before screenings of Logan, fans are being treated to a short, three-minute tease for the film....
Warning: SPOILERS ahead for Deadpool 2 - Deadpool 2 has arrived in theaters and, like its predecessor, the movie is packed full of pop cullture references from beginning to end - not to mention quite a few cameos.

Death Stranding is Kojima’s first game since his messy split from Konami, the company with which he produced all of his greatest hits prior to launching his own studio, including Metal Gear Solid and Zone of the Enders....
The meta-relationship between Marvel’s Deadpool and DC’s Deathstroke just became even more layered with famed comic book writer Christopher Priest confirming his “Arkham” storyline was meant to be read as an unofficial crossover. Though the merc with a mouth and the man known as the Terminator exist in two different superhero franchises, the connection between the super-powered contract killers runs deep. While co-creator Rob Liefeld likes to point out distinctions between Wade Wilson (Deadpool) and Slade Wilson (Deathstroke), most comic book readers believe the former is a parody version of the latter....

It’s safe to say Superman relies on one of the most unconvincing disguises in comics. Amounting to a change of behavior and a pair of glasses (and a hair change, if the artist decides).

And in Superman: Heroes, it’s confirmed that one of Clark’s best pals was never fooled at all....
