An old comic book panel featuring Doctor Doom and Namor. Doom has a large musical horn that Namor is warning him not to toot. But Doom ignores his warning. Doom toots as he pleases.

Cartoon meme of a cow facing a hallway split in half by a fake wall to give the illusion it is split into two separate hallways. On the left side of the fake hallway, the text reads: β€œNew Game is Massively Successful” above the Marvel Rivals logo. The other side reads β€œNew Game Bombs Horribly” above the Concord logo. Both sides lead to the same place: a dark room with the word β€œunemployment” printed above.

Batman: Arkham Shadow released today, and is getting great reviews. A huge congrats to the team at Camouflaj!

Not many people know this, but a handful of folks from Ready At Dawn stayed on at Meta to help finish out the game, so its release marks the last title worked on by Ready At Dawn.
