I'm particularly excited about the return of beloved franchises like Guardians of the Galaxy and Spider-Man, as well as the introduction of new heroes like Echo and Madame. The potential for epic crossovers and exciting new adventures has me counting down the days until these projects hit the screens.

However, I can't help but feel a sense of concern regarding the potential impact of industry strikes on the release dates of some highly anticipated titles, such as Beyond the Spider-Verse. The entertainment industry is facing significant challenges, and it's crucial that these issues are addressed to ensure that fans can enjoy these highly anticipated projects without unnecessary delays.
