Music
Rolling Stones
The rock n roll stalwarts had to put their tour on hiatus (including their appearance at this year’s Jazz Fest in NOLA) because Jagger needs undisclosed medical treatment.

Killswitch Engage
According to Mike D the pool of tunes for the upcoming album is about 17 final tracks. The actual record won’t be that song laden, but according to D’Antonio there are plans for the extras.

Ashes of the Wake
Lamb of God are old. Their album Ashes of the Wake is turning 15 years old. To commemorate the event, they are re-releasing the album. Not clear if they will be remastering any of the tracks, but there will be 4 new tracks. One b-side called Another Nail For Your Coffin, and 3 demo versions of tracks from the album.
TV
Umbrella Academy
One of the best comic book adaptations in recent memory, just got a second season!

Movies
The Dead Don’t Die
Following the news from the last episode, we got a trailer for the zombie comedy from Focus Features.

Child’s Play
Mark Hamill is going to voice Chucky in the Orion Pictures reboot of the movies. NOT to be confused with the TV series that will continue the antics of the killer trapped in the body of a doll that is the continuation of the original movie series. IP rights are so sticky…

Gaming
Valve Index
Valve’s website is teasing a new VR headset. This time, unlike the Vive, it seems they are going on their own without HTC. No specs have been given just yet, but this will be the first time we see a generation flip for VR.

George R R Martin
The game of thrones scribe is reportedly working with Software, the developer that brought us the Dark Souls franchise and Seikro: Shadows Die Twice. Sounds like Martin’s medieval fair. A familiar style with a twist. There are reportedly going to be a series of Kingdoms which grant you specialized abilities once you have conquered them individually.
Comic Books
Hall of Fame
This year’s San Diego Comic Con will begin a character Hall of Fame. The first inductee is going to be Batman, coming right on his 80th birthday.

DC Universe
Starting in April the service will have EVERY DC comic book ever… so long as it is older than 12 months. DC made the announcement at WonderCon Anaheim.

Major X
Marvel is claiming the first run of issue #1 has sold out already. To celebrate the second run will get a new cover. Weird how this works considering how they always send more copies than are ordered.
