One thing that's especially beautiful about the alternate reality known as "Apocalypse World" that Supernatural has recently introduced is that it allows for the series to bring back certain characters in less convoluted ways. Really, there's no need to think up some kind of magical spell or whatnot; the fact that different incarnations of Bobby Singer, Michael and Zachariah exist in a universe next door is a simple enough concept to wrap your head around.
In just a few hours, Arrow will return from the recent hiatus it was forced to endure thanks to the 2018 Winter Olympics. And when it does, we'll finally be able to pick up after that memorable cliffhanger which saw Ricardo "The Dragon" Diaz murder Cayden James, likely revealing himself as this season's true big bad.
Being someone who's been on board with Supernatural ever since the pilot episode aired, one thing I've learned about the long-running horror series is that death doesn't mean a permanent end. Really, in a world where ghosts, monsters and a variety of gods exist, there's no shortage of ways to bring back characters that fans have come to love. In fact, Jim Beaver's Bobby Singer has been one of the best examples, having appeared as both a ghost and in a coma dream.
If anything, the season finale of Legends of Tomorrow will be a star-studded affair, to say the least. I mean, not only will we bear witness to the returns of both Jonah Hex and Jefferson Jackson, but none other than John Constantine will be putting in an appearance as well!
Whenever one embarks on a camping trip - especially to a location in close proximity to a lake - any self-respecting Friday the 13th fan is going to make the obvious jokes saying that you should probably watch out for Jason Voorhees. Having said that, we're wondering if the treasure we're about to discuss today has ever made unsuspecting swimmers poop their pants.
Since the beginning, there always existed jokes regarding the absence of Jim Gordon's mustache on Gotham. Really, I even saw memes and such likening it to Superman's cape, even jesting that he wouldn't grow out his pushbroom until the series finale, similar to how Clark Kent embraced his destiny in Smallville's concluding episode.
No matter if you favor DC or Marvel, there's a good chance that you like characters belonging to both sides. Given that, there's a reason why fans freak out whenever a crossover occurs, or when a simple nod to the competition is witnessed.
If you've been following what Marvel's been up to for the past year or so, then you know how much fun they've been having with the Punisher. Not only has he turned a lot of heads by donning the War Machine armor in his own ongoing series, but he's also been revealed to be the Cosmic Ghost Rider in Thanos #16.
One of the most beautiful things the comic book world has ever given us is that of the storytelling possibilities yielded by alternate realities. To the delight of countless readers, both DC and Marvel have wowed us in the past with radically different takes on their heroes and villains with Elseworlds and What Ifs.
After being forced into hibernation for a few weeks thanks to the 2018 Winter Olympics, The Flash is finally ready to get back to business. And with Barry Allen now finally out of the clink, we hope the show can recapture some of the old magic - or lightning in a bottle, if we're to be more on the nose.
