Star Trek ended with Star Trek Beyond (Star Trek Discovery was okay and I do like Star Trek Picard though)
X-Men ended with X-Men First Class (I do enjoy Deadpool VS Wolverine)
Ratchet & Clank ended with the 2016 Video Game (or A Crack in Time depending on your point of view where you play thegames)

"Being a part of this tournament reminded me that writing can be—gasp—fun." Hell yeah. If only AWP were in Baltimore this year (next year!) this would be a great convergence.

"Certainly, if you want to think too hard about it, “Joy to the World” poses some curious questions. Where did the bullfrog get the wine?"
