Reports of artillery blasts heard in Kyiv as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warns of impending Russian assault on the capital. Invading Russian forces have closed in on Ukraine’s capital in an apparent encircling movement after a barrage of air attacks on cities and military bases around the country. Frequent artillery blasts could be heard in Kyiv in the early hours of Saturday, coming from an unspecified location some distance from the city centre, according to the Reuters news agency. Ukraine Supporter, I Stand With Ukraine The invasion of Ukraine began early on Thursday with missile attacks on cities and military bases, followed by a multipronged ground assault that rolled troops in from separatist-held areas in the east; from the southern region of Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014; and from Belarus to the north. The assault, anticipated for weeks by the West, amounts to Europe’s most significant ground conflict since World War II. It is unclear how much or little R

While battling a cosmic villain akin to Marvel's Thanos, Rick and Morty prove that one MCU hero should not have survived his first movie. While battling a multiversal threat in the pages of a series continuation comic book, Rick and Morty prove an MCU hero shouldn’t have survived his first movie. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has given fans a live-action look at some of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe, but a few of their stories ended a bit too quickly and abruptly. One powerful MCU villain in particular would have definitely won in the final battle against the pesky heroes trying to stop him, and Rick and Morty just proved that to be true.  Rick And Morty Dimension Portal T-Shirt In Rick and Morty Presents: The Vindicators #1 by J. Torres and CJ Cannon, the cosmic superhero team the Vindicators recruit Rick and Morty to help them battle a multiversal threat.

Adult Swim's science-fiction comedy series, Rick and Morty, needs a happy ending and a proper resolution to the main characters' toxic relationship. Adult Swim's sci-fi comedy Rick and Morty needs a happy ending and a proper stance on the main characters' relationship. The fan-favorite animated sitcom, Rick and Morty, began airing back in 2013 and was renewed for a total of 70 more episodes after its third season. The show's signature brand of abrasive comedy hinges on Rick and Morty's dynamic; two characters who are diametrically opposed and yet still go on adventures together. Rick And Morty Tie Dye Drip Graphic T-Shirt Rick and Morty season 5's finale sees the return of the mysterious "evil Morty" who made his first appearance back in season 1 episode 9 (spawning many evil Morty theories). Evil Morty is a character who despises all Ricks due to their manipulation of, and disregard for, Mortys. Season 5 ends with evil Morty offering Morty to jo

Dying Light 2's first free DLC is Peacekeeper-themed

Image
Techland has committed to at least five years of post-launch support for Dying Light 2 , and we're about to see the first portion of that support in the form of a free DLC. The Authority Pack consists of an armor set and weapon themed around the game's law and order-loving Peacekeeper faction. Horror Video Game Dying Light Unisex T-Shirt The Judge-Dredd-esque Peacekeepers deck themselves out in policeman-blue riot gear, and their "execute-you-for-jaywalking" buzzkill vibes contrast with the other main faction in the game: the Chaotic Neutral party boy Survivors. There's no word yet on when the Authority Pack will release, aside from "soon," but I have to imagine the Survivors will get a similar gear treatment shortly thereafter. If you don't want to roleplay a lantern-jawed apocalypse cop yelling "I am the law" at whoever will listen, your day will come.

Minecraft's new frog mobs aren't officially arriving until 1.19, but you can try them out in Bedrock 1.18.10. Ahead of the Wild Update arriving sometime in 2022, Minecraft Bedrock is testing out those fun new frog mobs that will be joining officially in version 1.19. The new version of Minecraft for Windows includes frogs, their tiny tadpole babies, and several of their new features to test out.  Minecraft, Diamond Digger T-Shirt From what we know about the frog mobs so far, they spawn in swamp biomes where they'll spend time snapping fireflies out of the air and hopping on Dripleafs. We already knew some other neat things about frogs, like how they hatch as tadpoles and grow into one of three frog varieties based on the biome they mature in. Mojang had also let on that frogs would be useful to players in some fashion, but didn't initially let on how.  Minecraft, Newbie T-Shirt Today's patch notes for Bedrock 1.18.10 let on at least part of what frogs can do and i
