    #8 another week in bed at Home (doing the show #2)

    The biggest box-office nerd story right now is Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which added about $153 million worldwide this weekend and pushed its global total to roughly $629 million, making it one of the year’s biggest theatrical stories so far. On the Marvel side, Spider-Man: Brand New Day now has its official release date locked for July 31, 2026, which keeps the MCU conversation hot going into summer. Marvel is also pushing fresh hype around The Punisher: One Last Kill, and its site is actively promoting Wonder Man Season 2 as part of the wider Marvel TV pipeline. For Star Wars, the current headline item is Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord. The series began with a two-episode premiere on April 6, 2026, and new episodes are rolling out weekly on Disney+, with the finale set for May 4. That gives you a clean “Star Wars is leaning darker with Maul again” angle. DC also has fresh movement today: Dark Knights of Steel II was announced on April 13, and DC says Superman/Spider-Man #1 is already going back for a second printing arriving May 27, which tells you crossover demand is strong. Marvel’s new-comics list for April 15 includes titles like Godzilla: Infinity Roar #3, Magik & Colossus #3, Ultimate Wolverine #16, Venom #257, and X-Men United #2. That gives you a nice “Marvel’s leaning hard into mutants, monsters, and cross-brand energy” read. A second useful comics beat is that Marvel recently rolled out books like Daredevil #1, Wonder Man #1, Marvel Rivals: Duel of Kings #1, and Alien: King Killer #1, which shows how they’re mixing evergreen heroes with game tie-ins and genre IP. DC’s oddball-but-fun digital crossover lane is also alive: Supergirl/Blade debuted on April 8 as a vertical-scroll crossover on DC Universe Infinite / DC GO!. That is a good “comics are getting weirder in a fun way” talking point.

    #7 This week Fonseca is at Home (doing the show)

    Big headline of the week: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is the current box-office monster. Deadline reports it is tracking to more than $370 million worldwide and Variety says it pulled $48.3 million Friday domestically, with a projected $129.4 million traditional weekend, making it the biggest opening of the year so far. That gives you a clean lead story: game adaptations are still gold, and Nintendo/Universal look like they’ve turned Mario into a true event franchise. Star Wars buzz: Disney+ launches Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord on April 6, 2026 with a two-episode premiere, then two episodes weekly through the May 4 finale. Even bigger for fans, Lucasfilm already confirmed Season 2 before Season 1 even premieres, so the confidence level is high. Also, The Mandalorian and Grogu hits theaters May 22, 2026, which is a strong “Star Wars is back on the big screen” talking point. Marvel movie/TV angle: Marvel’s next Spidey film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is set for July 31, 2026, while Avengers: Doomsday remains one of the biggest tentpoles on deck for December 18, 2026. On the TV side, The BoysSeason 5 premieres April 8, 2026 on Prime Video and is the final season, so superhero fatigue is not killing interest when the hook is “final chapter.” DC watch: DC has Supergirl landing in theaters June 26, 2026, and the new teaser push gives you a nice compare/contrast segment against Marvel’s 2026 slate. A good on-air question is whether DC’s newer, cleaner rollout under Gunn is finally becoming easier for casual fans to follow. “Mario isn’t just a hit, it’s becoming one of Hollywood’s safest blockbuster bets.”“Star Wars has two lanes right now: gritty Disney+ with Maul, and event cinema with Mando and Grogu.”“Marvel’s comic side may be having the most fun right now—big event books, MTG crossover cards, and Marvel/DC team-ups.”
