Spider-Man and Hulk team up in new comic

Spider-Man and Hulk are teaming up again in the four-part comic series Spider-Man/Hulk: Fire and Brimstone, where they battle supernatural forces instead of supervillains.

The story begins with Bruce Banner attempting an exorcism to finally separate himself from the Hulk, leading Peter Parker and Banner into a “Biblical-scale” conflict involving demons and spirituality. The comic is written by Kevin Smith and Andy McElfresh, with artwork by R.B. Silva.

Classic Transformers movie returns to cinemas

The Transformers: The Movie is returning to theatres for its 40th anniversary with a new 4K re-release from September 17 to September 21 in the US, with some international releases planned too.

The 1986 animated film became famous for shockingly killing off Optimus Prime and introducing Unicron, voiced by Orson Welles in one of his final roles.

Although it flopped at the box office with $5.9 million, the film later gained cult status and heavily influenced future Transformers stories, including the Matrix of Leadership and later appearances of Unicron.

Zelda movie release moved up

The Legend of Zelda will now release on April 30, 2027, a week earlier than its original May 7 date.

Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto said the team wants to bring the film to audiences “as soon as possible.” The live-action adaptation stars Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link and Bo Bragason as Princess Zelda, with visuals reportedly inspired by the games The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The film is expected to adapt the fantasy world of Hyrule, where Link must protect Zelda and stop Ganondorf from gaining control of the Triforce.
