2024 is the twenty-fourth year in the 21st century. It follows 2023 and precedes 2025. It began on a Monday. It could be argued that 2024 is the Year of the Monkey. If an entire kingdom of talking horseback riding apes doesn't drive the point home, then surely the biggest monkey of our time teaming up with the greatest Kaiju of ALL time is sure to lift one's spirits. If monkeys aren't your thing, then circle on back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and engage with Maya Lopez as she reconnects with her roots in Echo on Disney+. Or explore the OTHER side of Marvel Comics madness with the intrigues of Madame Web, the ferocity of Kraven the Hunter, and of course, everyone's favorite Merc With a Mouth... Deadpool. Road rage got ya down? Don't sweat it. Live vicariously through the greasy turbo-charged mania of Furiosa. Or take a trip to the planet Arrakis and see what those crazy Fremen are up to. For the romance lovers out there, let your hearts go aflutter as Lisa Frankenstein goes on a date night killing spree her undead lover. Or, you can take a journey through time and space with Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor as he dives deep into new adventures with his companion Ruby Sunday.
