With several superheroes, the existence of their children is well known....

Some of the fondest memories for children of the 2000s were being able to sit in front of the rabbit-eared TV set on the weekends and watch some cartoons. At that time, Cartoon Network was one of the top channels for animated series. Who could forget watching Ben 10 or Duck Dodgers after coming home from school? As adults, viewers still can’t help but remember the catchy theme songs and hilarious characters from these hit shows....

Apple’s tremendously capable new Mac Pro has been in the headlines all summer, but not just for its raw power and modularity. Instead, the attention has focused on something much less fascinating: tariffs. Will it be assembled in the US like the 2013 model it replaces? Will it cost Apple more to build it in China and import it to the United States? Might it be exempt from President Trump’s China tariffs?...

Though not the most-watched show on television, 30 Rock is one of the most acclaimed sitcoms around. The show followed Liz Lemon (Tina Fey), the creator of a late-night sketch show who is forced to deal with the show’s insane star Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) and her intense boss Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin).

The thriller novel is a challenge for any writer. Without the speed and visual intensity of the moving picture, an author has to work hard to make the novel just as gripping despite being worked through at a much slower pace. Many of these novels end up being turned into hugely successful films. Despite this, there are a fair few thriller books who remain better than their film counterparts. We’ve collected five books better than their movie remakes, and five movie remakes which trump their source material....

She was the perfect mix of a good head and a good heart, brave and selfless with a huge amount of intelligence to back it all up. As such, she had some of the best lines in the series. J.K. Rowling herself said that when she wanted to say something through her characters, she would usually use Hermione or Dumbledore....
