What Is Captain Marvel’s Weakness?
Warning: spoilers for Captain Marvel ahead!
It's no secret that Carol Danvers is a powerhouse. She's a Kree-hybrid who, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, was empowered directly by a blast from an Infinity Stone, which puts her inarguably within the ranks of the MCU's strongest heroes -- but no character can be completely without weakness, not even the mightiest of Earth's Mightiest Avengers. Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige has already assured fans that Carol will have some sort of Achilles' heel, but unsurprisingly withheld the details about just what that weak spot might be. While there’s no Kryptonite-like substance that can easily take Captain Marvel down, there are some notable disadvantages she has in the comics.

What Is the New Stranger Things Monster in Season 3?
The trailer for Season 3 of Stranger Things features superpowered pranks, teenage angst, and a first trip to the mall! But the thing that has people talking is the nasty looking monster at the end. What is that thing?
While the trailer doesn’t offer any concrete information, we have a few clues to go on.
Dungeons and Dragons
Each season features one monster in particular that Mike, Dustin, Lucas, and Will, being the dorks that they are, name after a D&D monster that has similar attributes. Season 1 gave us the Demogorgon, and Season 2 the Mind Flayer (and the Demogorgon spin-off, the Demodog). This new beast stands apart from the rest, and IGN’s resident D&D nerd Nick Limon pegs it as what could be a Tarrasque.
