WOKE Marvel is DEAD, Sean Penn DEFENDS Conservatives & James Gunn RUINS BATMAN!? | Week In Nerdom

Hello Nerds, and welcome to The Week In Nerdom, your one-stop shop for all the gaming, movie, music, and comic book news that actually matters. This week, the simulation is breaking. The gaming world was rocked as Electronic Arts (EA) was sold for a staggering $55 billion to a group led by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund and Jared Kushner. Meanwhile, in the DCU, James Gunn is making waves with rumors that he's changing the fundamental origin of Damian Wayne for the upcoming Batman: The Brave and the Bold movie. And in a twist no one saw coming, Hollywood liberal Sean Penn defended conservative pundit Charlie Kirk, while Jimmy Kimmel's ratings reportedly crash by 70%.
We're breaking down all of that and so much more.
