Searching for a new, more lethal form of co-dependancy, Edward's targeted the intellectual and artistic community of Gotham, looking for a worthy sparring partner.

Snatch and SuperMansion Renewed by Crackle
Crackle has renewed its hit series Snatch and SuperMansion.
Snatch, based on director Guy Ritchie's 2000 film of the same name, is returning for Season 2 in 2018. Since the first season premiered on the streaming service in March, it has become Crackle's most-streamed scripted original show.
Plot details for the new season have yet to be revealed, but most of the main cast, including Rupert Grint (Charlie Cavendish-Scott), Luke Pasqualino (Albert Hill), and Juliet Aubrey (Lily Hill) are returning.

Where Are All the MCU Players After Infinity War?
Avengers: Infinity War has finally landed on Digital HD and is about to hit Blu-ray, and a whole new wave of MCU movies are on the way in 2019. With so many films and TV series making up this shared universe, it can be tough to keep track of all the major players.
Consider this a refresher course on where your heroes (and a few villains) currently are, where we last left them, and where they might be going in the ever-evolving shared universe that is the MCU. From the Avengers (are they still together?) to Spider-Man (uhhhhh) to Captain Marvel (who's that now?), we break it all down for you below.
Just beware of spoilers for Avengers: Infinity War, Ant-Man and the Wasp and Agents of SHIELD!

Super Bomberman R Getting Silent Hill DLC
Konami will be adding new characters from various Konami franchises - including Silent Hill's Pyramid Head - to Nintendo Switch exclusive Super Bomberman R.
Announced alongside a free DLC drop released today, a future update will add costumes based on Vic Viper from Gradius, Simon Belmont from Castlevania, and Pyramid Head from Silent Hill. A solid release date and whether these characters will cost any money have not been revealed yet.
It's not the first time Pyramid Head - the frankly terrifying manifestation of Silent Hill 2's protagonist's punishing guilt for the death of his wife - has been used in a... strange context; he has appeared as a playable character in New International Track and Field, as well as Krazy Kart Racing on mobile.
