New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle’s Mask Color and Weapons Revealed
IDW Publishing has revealed a new member of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles named Jennika, designed by TMNT artist Sophie Campbell. But before we get to the (rather crazy) story of how Jennika came to be a Ninja Turtle as seen in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #95, view the new Ninja Turtle in her yellow mask and wielding a sword, bow, and claw weapon.
Take a look:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #95 by writers Tom Waltz and Kevin Eastman, artist Dave Watcher, and colorist Ronda Pattison with story by Bobby Curnow.
The Origin of Jennika the New Yellow-Masked Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
A human woman named Jennika, or Jenny for short, has been making waves in the series of late, as she is both the love interest of Casey Jones and a member of the Foot Clan. Though the Foot Clan is typically a villainous group, it was actually taken over by Splinter in this comic series, and he’s been hard at work trying to reform them into something more honorable. Jenny has long been loyal to the ideals of the Foot Clan but often found herself conflicted with what was right and wrong. That was put to the test when former Foot Clan leader Karai confronted Jenny and asked for her help in retaking control from Splinter. When Jenny refused, Karai stabbed her.

Gearbox Confirms Borderlands 3 Cross-Play Details
Gearbox will reveal something related to the theme of “togetherness” tomorrow. But whatever it is, it won’t be a cross-play announcement for Borderlands 3.
Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford confirmed that whatever Borderlands 3's "Celebration of Togetherness" reveal is tomorrow it has nothing to do with cross-play. Instead, Pitchford assured fans that even if cross-play won’t be announced tomorrow, the online feature will hopefully come to Borderlands 3 after launch.
Last week, the official Borderlands 3 Twitter account posted an invitation to a new Borderlands 3 livestream event for Tuesday, July 16. The invitation was for an event titled, “Celebration of Togetherness."
Fans saw the invitation as a teaser for cross-play in Borderlands 3. Having cross-play would mean that players could enjoy Borderlands 3 with friends, regardless of which platform they owned Borderlands 3 on. Xbox One Borderlands 3 owners could play together with PS4 or PC players, and vice versa.
How Assassin’s Creed Vikings Could Bring the Franchise Full Circle
After Assassin’s Creed made its debut back in 2007, the battle between The Templar and The Assassins went on to have 9 main series games before Ubisoft finally decided to slow things down a bit. Five years and four games after the completion of Assassin’s Creed III, Assassin’s Creed: Origins, later followed by Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, served as origin stories for the Brotherhood of Assassins.
While both games brought a lot to the table regarding the establishment of the Hidden Ones (the pre-Assassins Assassins), they also leave some big questions lingering in the air: how will the rumored Vikings-era Assassin’s Creed lead into the formation of the Assassins Brotherhood, and what does it mean for our modern-day heroes?

Amazon Prime Day: This Joy-Con Deal Is a Great Offer You Shouldn’t Miss
For Prime Day this year, Amazon is offering up a great little deal for Nintendo fans. You can grab some brand new Joy-Con Switch controllers for only $59.99 - $20 off the normal price. This isn't the sexiest deal in the world but the $80 regular price for the Joy-Con has always been a little hard to swallow. The tiny controllers pack in a lot of tech - their own individual batteries, advanced rumble, an NFC reader, accelerometer... the works. So the price makes sense, but we're still happy to save $20.
