Apocalypse’s 5 Biggest WTF Questions Answered
X-Men: Apocalypse has arrived, which means it’s time for yet another discussion on the biggest questions, surprises, Easter eggs, and WTF moments that went down in the latest film to feature Professor Xavier’s band of merry mutants. We’re talking full spoilers here, so click away from this page if you haven’t seen the film yet.
O.K., still with us? Then let’s use our collective mutant power of deduction and speculation to figure out what’s going on in Apocalypse.
As we said, full spoilers for X-Men: Apocalypse follow…
Look, this is perhaps the most glaring disconnect between Days of Future Past and Apocalypse. You will recall that at the end of that previous film, Mystique -- while posing as William Stryker -- fished an unconscious Wolverine out of the Potomac River. X-Men history tells us that Stryker, of course, would eventually become the guy behind Weapon X, the government research program that would in time give Logan his adamantium skeleton and claws. But when Wolvie shows up for his cameo in Apocalypse at Alkali Lake (Weapon X headquarters), he’s already undergone his Weapon X transformation… under the orders of the real Stryker, it seems. And there’s nary a mention of Mystique’s having saved Logan from the river 10 years earlier.

I have had to make the tough choice to delay the game for a few weeks to allow us to deliver something special.

Animated Spider-Man Rumored to Focus on Miles Morales
A new rumor suggests Sony's untitled animated Spider-Man film will center on Miles Morales—the mixed race Spider-Man who takes over for Peter Park in an alternative Marvel universe.
There are currently two working titles for the Spider-Man film, according to Heroic Hollywood. The titles, Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man and The Ultimate Spider-Man: Miles Morales, seem to draw on Morales appearance in Marvel's Ultimate imprint, which has "separate continuity" from Marvel's main timeline.

John Cena Talks RAW Return, Camp WWE and More
Thanks to a shoulder injury in January, John Cena has been missing from WWE programming for most of the year - though he did make a big appearance at WrestleMania a couple of months ago, in a segment with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and the Wyatt family. However, Cena will be back full time beginning on the next RAW and, in typically impressive fashion, he's returning after five months away, even though the initial prognosis was nine months.
Shortly before his appearance at the NBCUniversal Upfront in New York event last week, I spoke to Cena about coming back to WWE, who he’s hoping to have storylines with and more – including his thoughts on the return of the WWE Women's Championship (replacing the Divas Championship), the adult-aimed animated series Camp WWE and more.

A Visual History of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were first introduced to the world way back in 1984. The original, Mirage Studios comic, created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, was a parody of several existing comic franchises. The success of the comic later spawned a syndicated cartoon program, and from there, Turtlemania swept the nation.
Suddenly the Turtles were everywhere, from video games to breakfast cereals, to an increasingly baffling line of action figures. The first live-action movie, way back in 1990, was a run-away success and spawned two follow-ups.
Here's a look at the Turtles' humble, surprisingly violent beginnings as comic book characters, all the way through to their upcoming appearance in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan.
