Marvel Comics officially announces a crossover with 'Attack on Titan'



Marvel Comics has recently dropped a major bomb. You may assume that this is a prank, but Marvel Comics assures that it is not the case. On Twitter, Marvel Comics' senior Vice President of Creative & Creator Development C.B. Cebulski said that there is going to be an official crossover between the Marvel Comics franchise and the popular anime series “Attack on Titan” aka “Shingeki No Kyojin.” Keep in mind that this is going to be one of those “What-If” stories that takes place in an alternate universe. Ultimately, it is going to be many notable Marvel Comics figures fighting it out with the the Titans of Attack on Titan. Cebulski reminded everybody in one of this tweets that this is the first time that a manga series crossed over into other comic universes.

 Before you get all excited about the possibility, the issue of how it will actually work. When you look at Attack on Titan, it is normal humans fighting off against the countless legions of cannibalistic Titans. In Marvel Comics, like any other comic universe, you have super-powered beings. It is probably a given that Spider-Man is going to be a character in the crossover from what the teaser art shows.

There is no knowing on who from the Marvel side will be in the crossover. Will there be any notable characters from the Attack on Titan side in the crossover, too? Not much has been revealed. That leaves a lot of speculating and imagining. It will rest on having a good story that neither belittles the Marvel characters or the Titans. When you carefully think about it, many of the Marvel characters can easily dispatch the Titans if they fought each other.

LG Display's New LCD Smartphone Panel Has Slimmest Bezel Yet


LG Display unveiled a new full high-definition LCD panel featuring the narrowest bezel for smartphones yet. The 5.3-inch HD display knocks the smartphone bezel down to 0.7 mm thick, according to the LCD display manufacturer.

That’s smaller than the thickness of a credit card in comparison which measure in at 0.8 mm. The display is bigger and more powerful than the recently released Sharp Aquos Crystal featuring a 5-inch, 720p screen though not quite as large as the 5.5-inch LG G3 released earlier in the year. LG Display was able to develop the screen through the use of its “Neo Edge” technology which is a process that integrates the panel’s circuit board and backlight into a single unit.

The technology prevents light leakage and ensures the unit is waterproof and dustproof. Mass production on the displays will begin in November and will ship to customers in China first “where demand for large screen smartphones is strong.” IGN gave the slim-bezeled Sharp Aquos Crystal a 7.4, calling it an “attractive but flawed entry-level phone.”

Google is renewing Calendar for Android and will prepare a version for iOS



The main novelty is the material design interface, similar to what already happens in other apps. Now it is easier to search and find events scheduled in the Calendar. Moreover, the new system will automatically import markings as flight reservations, purchases of tickets for shows or other events that are in the Inbox, and add them to the calendar user.

The markings are now presented in a more visible and highlights as background colors and images form, so they are more easily discernible, explained to The Verge. Initially, the app is available for Android 5.0 and follows the version for Android 4.1 or higher. Another novelty is the preparation for the first time, a fully prepared for iOS version, although still not know the release date.

Galaxy Note Edge: What A Curve


Set to release on November 14th Samsung has announced that they are going to release the Galaxy Note Edge. And not only is this phone going to be big, but it's also going to have a curve on the edge of the screen. It's kind of strange that Samsung would have a curve on the very right of a phone, but it seems to work well from the demos we have seen so they rolled with it.

Personally I don't see the usefulness in having the design this way, but it looks pretty cool for some things it can do like quick shortcuts to apps and being able to change it to whatever you want it to do. The problem I see what will happen is that the side of the screen will get in the way when you want to watch movies or you play games.

It looks like it would be awkward to hold for just that reason, let alone the phone being a whopping 5.6 inches big. I gotta give it to Samsung though because they marketed this well to make it not as strange and they also made it look very functional. I doubt I will get a phone like this, but it's nice to have options.
