A theme and introduction so beloved and so iconic that you’re probably humming the theme tune in your head whilst reading this, hearing Lisa’s saxophone solo and the sound of tires screeching before Homer’s yelp of fright.

Apple said in the keynote that the 2018 12.9-inch iPad is ‘the ultimate iPad,’ combining that deliciously huge screen with something that is – thanks to the much smaller casing – still very portable.

For consistency and quantity in superhero entertainment, it’s hard to top The CW’s Arrowverse. Since launching with Arrow in 2012, the Arrowverse has been much like the comics on which its based. There’s been home to a bevy of unbelievable exciting plots, there’s been countless heroes and villains duking it out, and there’s been the highest highs and the lowest lows in terms of story decisions. While the overall picture of the Arrowverse is one of harmless and fun superhero entertainment, not every storyline has been a winner....
