In our last show for the year we take a first look at The Boys spinoff series Gen V, the third Guardians of the Galaxy is on its way, a G-O-T twist for zombie apocalypse series The Last of Us, the latest Transformers movie, a new Starship Troopers game, a new season of Japanese trapped-in-a game series Alice in Borderland and our North American correspondent has the latest sci-fi news from Hollywood.
Amazon's singular supehero series The Boys certainly includes some very dark elements but even when the gore is flying, spinning, whizzing through the air and or dripping from every surface, the tone is more often comedic than grim.
Spinoff Gen V showrunners Michelle Fazekas and Tara Butters also have a history of genre dramas with a healthy comedic sheen, so it's surprising that our first look at their new series is all bloody and terrifying.
