Apple TV+'s For All Mankind spin-off, Star City, premieres on May 29.

From the blurb: Star City is a propulsive paranoid thriller that takes us back to the key moment in the alt-history retelling of the space race — when the Soviet Union became the first nation to put a man on the moon. But this time, we explore the story from behind the Iron Curtain, showing the lives of the cosmonauts, the engineers and the intelligence officers embedded among them in the Soviet space program, and the risks they all took to propel humankind forward.

Considering how he seemed to regard Max Lord’s Justice League, one might expect Superman to hallucinate this in his last few minutes of life:

ICE: Whoa, I can’t believe you won, Superman! Doomsday seemed like he was too much even for you!
SUPERMAN: I…(haff)…I did what I had to, Ice…it’s only what any COMPETENT superhero would have done…
GUY: Yeah, it’s almost as rocksauce as how I woulda done it!
ICE: Here, let me ice your wounds. Your body clearly needs… 💖 lots of attention 💖 …
MAXIMA: A magnificent demonstration of f#ckability, Kryptonian. [shoves aside Ice, who flies through the air and falls into a dumpster] Now, we bang.
‘‘BLOODWYND’’: I am also impressed. Or am I? I refuse to tell you anything about myself. I am…me. That is all you need to know!
BOOSTER: Hold still while I get a victory selfie with you, Supes!
SUPERMAN: Ack…(choke)…
FIRE: Oh, me next! My new costume’ll really pop if we get Doomsday’s bloody corpse in the background!
BLUE BEETLE: Hope you don’t mind, I just sold the rights to Doomsday’s body as the site of a new casino!
SUPERMAN: I…I can’t take it anymore…kkkkkkk…kk.
BLUE BEETLE: …Supes?
( GUY: Wow. What a wuss! )

Title: curious little pink thing
Fandom: Kirby (series) + Project Hail Mary (2026), as a crossover between the two. Please tag as Kirby and Project Hail Mary (film) respectively, mods 🥺
Rating: PG-13
Length: 2557 words
Content notes: Part of the same AU as these works, but like. Is an AU of that AU where Project Hail Mary happened prior to Kirby and the Forgotten Land's events. Also ALL of this silliness is taking place post-Star Crossed World so pls don't yell at me about Star Crossed World spoilers if they come up. I swear this fic was finished just today and not started during the amnesty!

As for actual content warnings: Rocky swears a couple times and so does Mahoroa lol. And kinda blatant spoilers for PHM due to the premise.
Author notes:So the premise of this fic may have happened purely because the AMC Theatres location I went to when I first watched PHM had these little claw machines with Kirby figures......... and then after the movie I thought "oh hey this movie would be perfect with Kirby involved because they have similar hopeful vibes :)"

Written for: The prompt Gentle for Fan Flashworks.
Summary: Long after Grace dies, Rocky decides to seek out one of the refuges of what remains of humanity, and instead meets the universe's pink puff of a hero and his weird family.

Sesame Street has been picked up by Netflix and may be going global. Are there kids’ shows you wish were better known elsewhere?

How do you feel about the return of those shows in a different era (such as the new Muppets Show special on Disney+)? Are these shows underappreciated by general audiences?
