Welcome to Fandom Rising. We’re an independent, creator-owned site which first began in 2022 when a group of professional journalists and critics united with a shared goal: To build a home online for people who want serious, thoughtful work about the art, stories, and culture that means something special to real people. “Fan” isn’t an insult, a punchline, nor a distinction for only those who’ve memorized the minutiae. It just means someone who cares. It’s the kind of shared feeling that turn a group of strangers into a community. Source

Search ArticlesWhat James Gunn and Peter Safran Leaving DC Studios Means
The DC Universe has been shaken up after Skydance purchased Warner Bros. a year after purchasing Paramount Studios. James Gunn and Peter Safran, the co-CEOs of DC Studios, were effectively fired and replaced with Marvel Studios veteran Jeremy Latcham. It’s not entirely a surprise, since cleaning house at DC has been a staple of the many mergers that saw WB pass from Time Warner to AT&T and then into the careless hands of David Zaslav at Discovery.
Review: The Fall And Rise Of Reggie Dinkins Is Not 30 Rock But Still Satisfyingly Silly
The following contains light spoilers for the first two episodes of The Fall and Rise Of Reggie Dinkins Season 2, “We Keep The Kisses” and “The Spaghetti Loop,” now streaming on Peacock. Tracy Morgan’s reunion with 30 Rock producers Tina Fey and Robert Carlock is very different from the Saturday Night Live sendup that ran for seven seasons. For one, it also stars Daniel Radcliffe. The show has a significantly lower density of jokes. The comedy is broad.
Stranger Things ‘Other Worlds’ Promises Everything, Gives Us Nothing
Hawkins, Ind. (WSQK) – Did you miss the big announcements on this year’s Stranger Things Day? I certainly did. As a casual fan, I also did not know it was a thing that existed. Apparently, there is an annual celebration on November 6 to commemorate the day Will Byers disappeared in 1983. Who knew? The biggest takeaway this year has been Netflix’s official confirmation of a spinoff set to debut in 2028– Other Worlds: A Stranger Things Adventure.
Fans Still Can’t See One Of Stranger Things’ Most Important Chapters, The First Shadow
It’s been a decade since Stranger Things first debuted on Netflix, launching the streamer’s biggest and best “franchise.” The 1980s-set horror adventure captured the zeitgeist like no previous Netflix original, and its final season just last year proved to be a true cultural event. However, only a select few have seen the most important part of this story, the stage production of Stranger Things: The First Shadow.
Stranger Things Is Over, but, the Upside Down Has a Gift Shop!
Hawkins has survived monsters, government conspiracies, five seasons of questionable parenting, and stranger things. Its greatest achievement, however, might be becoming the world’s most marketable supernatural disaster. If you told me in 2016 that a missing child, a faceless monster, and a girl with a shaved head would eventually lead to a collaboration with Tide laundry detergent, I would’ve assumed you’d spent too much time in the Upside Down.
Happy Stranger Things Day: Celebrating The Worst Moment For Will Byers!
Ten years after Stranger Things premiered, November 6 still brings us back to Hawkins. The series has ended, the arguments haven’t, and I have absolutely no intentioof letting anyone else’s opinion ruin a decade of loving it. There are plenty of perfectly reasonable things to celebrate on November 6. Birthdays, anniversaries, and the fact that stores have finally discounted Halloween candy to prices that reflect its actual nutritional value all qualify.
Croc 2 Remaster is a Pleasant Return to 90s 3D Platformers
For any platformer today, like Astro Bot on the PlayStation 5 or 2026’s Well Dweller,a rich history of game mechanics underpins it. In particular, 3D platformers had a moment in the 90s and early 2000s. With the rise of Super Mario 64 and Rare’s Banjo-Kazooie, many sought to follow in the footsteps of massive global hits. The Croc franchise sits below that upper echelon, but it still sustains a strong cult following.
VisionQuest’s Penultimate Episode Addresses The Scarlet Witch NOT In The Room
The following contains spoilers from VisionQuest Episode 7, “Immolation,” which debuted November 3, 2026, on Disney+. The second-to-last VisionQuest episode shares a lot of narrative DNA with the penultimate episode of WandaVision. In both stories, the protagonist goes on an internal journey revealing crucial things about their identity and past. However, “Immolation” also addresses the death of Wanda Maximoff which, up until now, most Marvel Cinematic Universe fans have tried to ignore.
Titanium Court Makes a Claim for GOTY 2026 Discussions
With two months left in 2026, I’m going to take some time to focus on games that need a little extra attention ahead of Game of the Year season. Few titles released this year are as complex and intriguing as Titanium Court. Developed by AP Thomson and published by Fellow Traveller, this game was easy to miss in a jam-packed spring release calendar. As gamers and critics work to rank their favorite games of the year, I think it’s well worth spending time checking this title out.

The stop-motion dark fantasy film Wildwood took 16 years to complete, from concept development to release.
