IDW announces Event Horizon sequel series

IDW Publishing has announced that it is set to follow its Event Horizon prequel series Event Horizon: Dark Descen t with an official sequel to the classic 1997 sci-fi horror film. Event Horizon: Inferno will be written by Dark Descent scribe Christian Ward, who will team with artist Rob Carey ( Aliens: Resistance ) to pick up the story some 200 years on from the original films terrifying conclusion. “I’m thrilled to continue the story of Event Horizon ,” said Ward. “First we told you the story about what happened before the events of the film and now we’re exploring what happened after the credits rolled. Get ready for more sci-fi, more excitement and especially more cosmic terror. There are more demons in hell and we’re only just beginning.” Event Horizon: Inferno #1 is set to go on sale in April 2026 .

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow Review – Why This Is Kara’s Best Story

There are certain superhero stories that exist purely to reinforce what we already understand about a character. They are comfortable, familiar, and reassuring in the way they hit expected beats. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is not one of those stories. Instead, it quietly dismantles long held assumptions about Kara Zor El and rebuilds her from the inside out, not as a symbol of optimism or a supporting figure in Superman’s orbit, but as a deeply scarred survivor navigating a universe that has never truly felt like home. Written by Tom King and illustrated by Bilquis Evely, Woman of Tomorrow is a graphic novel that feels deliberately patient in a medium that often rewards excess and immediacy. It does not rush to impress with bombast or constant action. Rather, it takes its time, allowing character, atmosphere, and theme to do the heavy lifting. By the end of its eight issues, it becomes clear that this is not just one of the best Supergirl stories ever told, but one of the mos...

The First Heretic Review – The Best Chaos Novel in the Horus Heresy?

Among the many novels that make up the Horus Heresy series, The First Heretic stands apart as one of the most emotionally charged and thematically important entries. Written by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, this novel does far more than chronicle battles or military campaigns. It explores belief, loyalty, pride, and the devastating consequences of faith denied. For many readers, it is the book that transforms the Horus Heresy from a sprawling war epic into a deeply personal tragedy. Set decades before the galaxy descends into open rebellion, The First Heretic focuses on the Word Bearers Legion and their Primarch Lorgar Aurelian. Through their story, the novel examines how the Imperium of Man sowed the very seeds of damnation it would later fight to destroy. The result is a powerful character driven narrative that reshapes the reader’s understanding of Chaos, heresy, and the nature of the Emperor himself. A Story of Faith in a Faithless Imperium At the heart of The First Heret...

Re:Play - Star Trek: The Next Generation

When Star Trek The Next Generation premiered on 28th September, 1987, it entered television history carrying a burden few series have ever been asked to shoulder. This was not simply a spin off or a revival. It was a direct continuation of one of the most culturally significant science fiction properties ever created, launching without the cast that had defined it. The original Star Trek had already survived cancellation, syndication resurrection, an animated continuation, and a growing series of feature films. Star Trek was no longer just a television show. It was a philosophy, a shared language, and for many fans, something deeply personal. The announcement of The Next Generation was therefore met with a mixture of curiosity and outright hostility. To many, Star Trek without Kirk, Spock, and McCoy felt unthinkable. The concern was not just nostalgia, but identity. Was Star Trek about specific characters, or was it about the values those characters represented? Could a new crew inheri...

Know No Fear: How Dan Abnett Redefined Roboute Guilliman and Reshaped the Horus Heresy

When discussing pivotal entries in the Horus Heresy series, Know No Fear stands as one of the most transformative novels ever written for the setting. Penned by Dan Abnett, this is not simply a well-crafted war story. It is a deliberate act of redefinition. It takes long-standing assumptions about the Ultramarines, about Roboute Guilliman, and even about the nature of the Horus Heresy itself, and reconstructs them into something far more layered, human, and ultimately tragic. To fully appreciate what this novel accomplishes, it is important to understand the perception it was working against. For years, the Ultramarines had been viewed by parts of the fanbase as rigid, overly perfect, and frankly uninteresting. Guilliman himself often came across as the archetypal administrator Primarch. Efficient, brilliant, but lacking the mythic intensity or emotional volatility of his brothers. Know No Fear dismantles that perception with surgical precision. From the very first pages, Abnett fram...
