Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 - The Best Marvel Movie!
At the point when the Guardians of the Universe first appeared in quite a while, a band of moderately dark legends served up as an entertainment bouche between the smart scenes of Iron Man and their buddies. Essayist chief James Gunn had done a couple of splattery blood and gore films, a super brutal, independent comic book transformation, and two Scooby Doos. Furthermore, driving man Chris Pratt was referred to fundamentally as the blockhead from Parks and Amusement. In any case, here's the thing about being an exception: you don't have anything and all that to demonstrate, and Gatekeepers of the Cosmic System showed each future comic book film that there was no restriction to how amusing and dorky yet at the same time profoundly true you could accompany your legends.

Ulysses, Chapter Two
Clad once more in jeans and leather jacket, with his hat as ever was, Joe soon cheered up when two pretty girls breezed by him on the bridge into town. Surely though he was getting too old to behave in such a way. At this he chuckled, reasoning funerals were bound to make us mindful of our own advancing years.

Ulysses, Chapter One
These mornings when the sun was like an egg-yolk in a sky of blue made you glad to be alive, Joe thought. All the more so when you couldn’t help but think of those who no longer were. Joe reached in the wardrobe for his black double-breasted suit, the one which only came out for funerals. Even so, our hero reflected as he turned to the tall bedroom window, there was much truth in the old saying. Beneath the beginnings of yet another hot day, the closely-placed tiled roofs of Boston were laid out in their familiar intricate pattern. The railway was a single bold dash cutting across this complexity, a reminder to Joe of far-off places he might eventually wish to see.

Ulysses, Chapter Three
By the time he’d returned home and fed the cats, Joe was just about ready to put his feet up. Climbing to the attic, he plucked a video tape from the shelf and slotted it in without looking at the label, then threw himself down and surrendered to the inevitable side-effects of exhaustion from overwork.

The most intriguing and impressive six unsolved enigmas originating from China
China has a rich history of intriguing and mysterious stories, often shrouded in secrecy. A video from August 2020 captures a peculiar incident in Shenyang City, where a large residential building under construction suddenly becomes engulfed in a massive fireball after a flying object, resembling a huge creature, flies behind it. Despite the speculation of fire-breathing dragons, such encounters with flying dinosaurs, like the pterosaur, are not uncommon in some parts of the world. Many eyewitnesses claim to have seen these creatures in modern times, such as in Papua New Guinea, where the ropen, also known as the demon flyer, is said to terrify the natives. The video raises two intriguing riddles that may or may not be connected. The willingness of many people to believe in such phenomena says a lot about human beings, both good and bad.

I had always stared up at the stars. I pondered the beauty, the endless sea of stars, the infinite opportunity for hope. The constant hope that one day I would be called forward to see it all.

Cold Sky
Shelia shivered, staring at the message flashing on her console. The dim sun barely penetrated through the observatory’s glass windows, with the eternally orbiting energy harvesters all but blocking the sun’s warmth from reaching the slowly freezing Earth. The reactors defiantly gasping heat into the atmosphere could not keep up with the thirsty Sphere, as it fueled humankind’s expedition through the cosmos. Humanities’ legacy, an inhospitable planet home to the remaining fraction of civilization, had received its first message from the distant voyagers in over a century. Shelia closed her eyes, the single syllable message floating in her vision.
