Upcoming Issue #2 Cover (Releasing March 11, 2026)
Marvel Comics has been busy building its own kaiju-sized lore since 2024, and with Godzilla at the forefront, Infinity Roar feels perfectly suited to act as a total universe reset. Whether it’s meant to be punny or serious depends entirely on how readers choose to accept it.
For readers late to the party, this isn’t the publisher’s first dance with the King of the Monsters. Throughout 2025, he systematically dismantled Earth’s mightiest in a series of one-shots, facing off against the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and Thor.

Old-school values clash with modern corporate power, but the film frames that tension as comedy first, making it a familiar, crowd-friendly New Year watch with bite beneath the laughs.
Few films align more neatly with the emotional pressure of Chinese New Year than Double Happiness. The holiday is built around reunion, even when families are fractured, and this film turns that tension into farce. Two incompatible families, two wedding banquets, one hotel, one day. The result is escalating chaos as a soon-to-be-married couple, played by

While looking for the latest word about when Ne Zha 2 will hit home video, and the next film, Ne Zha 3 will release, there are rumours suggesting it could arrive as early as this year. These expectations are far too optimistic. While the 2026 Chinese animation production schedule shows what’s being developed, not everything will be ready to screen until the following year, or much later.
