The Man is with child. Becky Lynch appeared on Monday Night Raw with some major news. After not having a match on the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, the WWE superstar and reigning Raw Women’s Champion revealed that she was pregnant. As such, she also vacated her title, naming Asuka the new champion.

“I’m at a place in my life where things are about to change and I need to do something about it,” Lynch said to open the show, adding that her leaving was a mixture of joy and sadness. She later told Asuka, “You go and be a warrior because I’m going to go be a mother.”

As for how Asuka got the title, Lynch noted that she spoke to WWE management about raising the stakes of the Women’s Money in the Bank match. The winner didn’t receive a shot at her championship. Instead, the winner–Asuka–won the championship itself.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is venturing into another new culture and era for the series–the nomadic Vikings as they founded new settlements during the Dark Ages. And to help capture the time period, Ubisoft has brought on a composer best known for another pop-culture depiction.

The German Ubisoft store listing states that Einar Selvik has been brought on to help compose the score. Selvik is best known for the Vikings TV series, which ran for six seasons. He worked various roles in the show’s music department from 2014-2019, and composed the score for 11 episodes.

In the age of streaming, and especially these days, owning physical movies isn’t as sought-after as it used to be. But there’s still something to be said about owning a physical set of your favorite movie series or TV show, and if you’re a Studio Ghibli fan, you can soon own brand-new limited-edition versions of some of Ghibli’s best films. The Japanese animation studio partnered with GKIDS to release stunning steelbook editions of Howl’s Moving Castle and Ponyo on May 12 (that’s tomorrow!), with special editions for Kiki’s Delivery Service and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind releasing later this summer on August 25. This is the first time steelbook editions for any Ghibli films have been released in North America.

Studio Ghibli Limited-Edition Blu-Ray Steelbooks

These new limited-edition steelbooks house Blu-ray and DVD combos, although unfortunately there’s no digital copy included. They feature a minimalist cover design featuring the star(s) of each film and a solid background. Naturally, Ponyo’s case is ocean blue, while the Howl’s Moving Castle case is a deep red to match Howl’s coat. Meanwhile, the Nausicaa case is a light green, fitting for its themes of sustainability, and the Kiki case is a lovely purple to accent her dress. It’s unclear whether more than just these four films will get limited-edition steelbooks–at least give us Spirited Away so I can replace my 2003 copy, GKIDS!– but it’s safe to say these four steelbooks will make excellent collector’s items for any Ghibli fan.

To sweeten the deal, the two films releasing tomorrow have gotten nice discounts on Amazon. Normally priced at $27, you can pre-order both Ponyo and Howl’s Moving Castle for just $20 each. That’s a fantastic deal considering regular Ghibli Blu-rays have consistently sold for around $30 in the past. (That said, deals do seem to be more frequent now that the Ghibli movies will soon be available to stream.)

Virizion Raid Hours

Virizion will appear in five-star Raids until 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET on May 19. These Raids can happen pretty much any time, but you’ll receive an in-game notification before one is about to begin nearby, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble tracking the Legendary Pokemon down.

Gears Tactics first released in late April, and it garnered high marks from many reviewers. In our Gears Tactics review, critic Mike Epstein praised the game’s ability to recreate the chaotic, gory feel of the franchises’ firefights, as well as its surprisingly deep tactical chops. If you’re struggling to get started, check out our beginner’s guide to the game. If you’re a subscriber to the Xbox Game Pass on PC, Gears Tactics is included.

With a new Dune movie hitting theaters in late 2020, the seminal science-fiction franchise will also be making its return to the comic book arena this year. BOOM! Studios has announced a new adaptation of the Dune prequel novel House Atreides.

Dune: House Atreides is a 12-issue limited series adapting the 1999 novel by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. Herbert and Anderson are also scripting this adaptation, though no artist has been revealed yet.

[widget path=”global/article/imagegallery” parameters=”albumSlug=dune-movie-images&captions=true”]

The first entry in the “Prelude to Dune” trilogy of books, House Atreides is set decades before the events of the original Dune novel. The story focuses on a young Leto Atreides (Oscar Isaac’s character in the movie) and his future bodyguard Duncan Idaho (Jason Momoa’s “Han Solo-esque” character) as they discover their shared destiny in a galaxy torn apart by revolution and political strife. Dune: House Atreides was followed by 2000’s Dune: House Harkonnen and 2001’s Dune: House Corrino.

Dune: House Atreides is published in an arrangement with Herbert Properties LLC and Abrams ComicArts. Abrams is also publishing a trilogy of graphic novel adaptations of the original Dune novel, with scripts by Herbert and Anderson, art by Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín and covers by Bill Sienkiewicz. Both Dune: Volume 1 and Dune: House Atreides #1 are slated to hit stores in Fall 2020, ahead of the film’s December 18 release.

“Dune: House Atreides holds a special place in my heart,” said Herbert in Boom’s press release. “It was the first novel Kevin and I wrote in my father’s fantastic Dune universe, and it is our first collaborative novel to be adapted for comics. In 1999, our novel was a surprise New York Times bestseller, and we have equally high expectations for this special BOOM! Studios adaptation.”

“It’s been more than twenty years since Brian and I published House Atreides, the first of our new novels set in Frank Herbert’s Dune universe,” said Anderson. “We loved exploring all the possibilities Frank created for us, and those books introduced a whole new audience to Dune. Now, in adapting House Atreides into a vibrant graphic format, it’s like rediscovering the story and the world all over again. So much of the novel is visually driven, the union of comics and House Atreides is a natural.”

This isn’t the only adaptation of Herbert and Anderson’s prequel novels in the works. A TV series called Sisterhood of Dune is being developed for the HBO Max streaming platform. A direct spinoff of director Denis Villeneuve’s movies, Sisterhood of Dune will delve deeper into the Bene Gesserit religious order and their efforts to produce the cosmic messiah known as the Kwisatz Haderach.
