How to EASILY Travel Distance in an X-wing and X-Wing Location - Fortnite
X-Wing quests offer valuable XP
Epic Games has gone all out for this season's Star Wars crossover, integrating iconic features of the franchise into core gameplay. While cosmetic items and weapons have been part of previous events, this time players can take to the skies in the legendary X-Wing, giving a whole new meaning to Victory Royale.The X-Wing is one of two flyable vehicles in the game, the other being the TIE Fighter. However, if you're aligning with the Resistance, the X-Wing is the craft to look for. Unlike random vehicle spawns, X-Wings appear in set locations - specifically Resistance-controlled areas.Key locations include the Resistance Base and Outpost Enclave, along with multiple satellite outposts. Notable X-Wing hotspots are:These ships tend to appear at the start of each match, but if you don't find one immediately, chances are someone else beat you to it.Flying the X-Wing is intuitive. The reticle-based control system means your direction and altitude are tied to where you aim. Pressing the fire button simultaneously triggers the built-in blasters, which deal 60 splash damage per hit.The X-Wing also supports boosting and smooth landing, with a total health of 1,050 HP. If destroyed once, it temporarily regenerates. But after a second takedown, it disappears permanently.Weapon accuracy isn't pinpoint, so players must rely on agility and height advantage to get the most out of airstrikes.There are in-game quests tied to the X-Wing. A Found Quest from Poe Dameron tasks players with destroying 25 structures using the vehicle's blasters, rewarding 30,000 XP and a Legendary A280-CFE Blaster.Another quest, Embrace the Light, challenges players to fly the X-Wing for 5,000 meters, which earns an additional 3,000 XP. With the right route and minimal conflict, this can be completed in a few matches.To survive longer in the X-Wing, avoid direct engagements. Climb to higher altitudes and fly in wide arcs instead of hovering. Also, try refueling at gas stations - though tricky to land, the X-Wing can be healed like cars if done right.Another tip? Travel away from busy drop zones. Some locations may appear quiet but offer enough flight room to cover quest requirements.

Superhero films needs a breather, and the fans won't mind
I was 15 when the first X-Men film came out. That was 2000. Then came Spider-Man, The Dark Knight, and eventually the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), a cinematic juggernaut that would come to define an entire generation. I am 40 now, and that means superhero movies have been a part of two-thirds of my life — not just as a fan but as someone who built a career around pop culture. When we started Comic Con India, the timing could not have been better. The MCU was hitting its stride, and suddenly fandom had mainstream legitimacy. For those of us who grew up with comics, this was both validation and vindication. The movies made being a geek cool. They opened doors for fans who had never read the books but connected deeply with the stories. They built businesses. They built communities. They turned niche obsessions into billion-dollar industries. It's easy to forget now, but the superhero wave also resurrected dormant franchises such as Tron, Ghostbusters, Blade Runner, and Dune. Entire genres came back into public consciousness because superhero films proved there was a paying audience for genre storytelling. So yes, I love these movies. Many of them deserved every bit of the adoration they received. But here's the truth: everything peaks. Everything plateaus. And sometimes, you need a break. This year's summer line-up was supposed to be a return to form. Big-budget superhero releases were back. But the response has been mixed, at best. I don't think these films can carry the weight they once did — not because the genre has failed, but because it may have simply run its course for now. And as someone whose business has benefited from their success, I say this without cynicism: it's okay to hit pause. In fact, it might be necessary. A breather could bring much-needed clarity for creators, for studios, and most importantly, for fans. The risk with overexposure is not fatigue, it's indifference. And no one wants that for a genre that's given us so much. I just got back from San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC), arguably the biggest pop culture convention in the world, and if there's one thing I took away, it's this: the fandom will survive. Superhero movies may take a backseat, but fans won't stop showing up. Because fandom has always been bigger than just superheroes. What most people don't realise is how wide the landscape has become. Sure, the anime wave is loud and growing, but there's more: Sci-fi, fantasy, classic cinema, comic books, indie zines, webcomics, niche games, manga, nostalgia merch, vinyl toys, Labubu collectables (don't ask) — the sheer range is staggering. And fans are moving across categories with ease. You can be a One Piece fan and a Star Wars nerd. You can love Breaking Bad and spend weekends reading underground comics. We have moved past monoculture. Everyone's in five fandoms at once. At SDCC this year, I met fans who had lists of exclusives to buy but who were equally excited about discovering new creators, going to obscure panels, and walking the artist alley. I saw collectors hunting for that one rare item, but I also saw people just soaking it in; the vibe, the conversations, the shared joy. The panels were packed. The lines were long. The city was buzzing. If this is what a 'post-superhero' era looks like, I'll take it. Because that's the thing: fandom isn't going anywhere. It just looks different now. In fact, I would argue that fandom culture today can't even be defined by superheroes anymore. It was for a long time, and rightfully so. But now, there are more eggs in the basket. The fan is no longer just a Marvel or DC loyalist. They're curious. They want stories that surprise them. Just look at the rise of creator-owned comics, indie Kickstarter campaigns, and fan art zines. People are not just buying IP, they are backing vision. And maybe, just maybe, this is exactly what the superhero genre needs, too. A reset. Less pressure to expand the universe. More room for weird, personal, grounded storytelling. Think Logan. Think Into the Spider-Verse. Stories that didn't feel like obligations, but choices. To be clear, I don't want superhero films to disappear. I still love them. But I want to miss them a little. I want to look forward to the next one because it's been a while, not because it's Tuesday. If anything, SDCC reminded me why I fell in love with this world in the first place. And why I will never be done with it. Take the break. Let it breathe. The fans will still be here. We always are. The writer is the founder of Comic Con India.

Bill Skarsgård's must-watch roles ahead of The Crow's OTT release
The Crow (2024), starring Bill Skarsgård, will be available to stream in India on Lionsgate Play from August 14, 2025. This gives viewers a chance to relive some of the actor's most memorable performances. Throughout his career, Skarsgård has appeared in a wide variety of projects, from short yet significant cameos to groundbreaking major roles. Bill Skarsgård in The Crow Bill Skarsgård films to watch on OTTplay Premium ahead of The Crow OTT release Bill Skarsgård makes a brief but impressive appearance as Zeitgeist, a mutant possessed by a peculiar ability to spew acidic bile in Deadpool 2. Although he only appears for a short while, his debut to the X-Force team is visually stunning and darkly humorous. The appearance shows that even in ensemble-driven, Skarsgård can make an impression, even though the character isn't completely explored in the film. Skarsgård provided the voice for Kro, the Deviants' leader, in Marvel's Eternals. The CGI- heavy antagonist added a lot of gravitas with the character's philosophical edge and ominous demeanour. Even though Skarsgård didn't make a physical appearance on screen, Kro's menacing and complex personality was brought to life by his vocal performance. His nuanced acting in this role showcased his ability to not only alter his appearance but also effectively convey characters through his voice. Skarsgård cast the physically challenging role of "Boy," a deaf-mute martial artist seeking retribution after his family was murdered, in this dystopian action-comedy. Because the character did not speak a word, Skarsgård had to communicate his emotions and intensity through his body language, battle choreography, and physical expressions. He established himself as an adaptable, daring actor because of the film's wacky humour and heightened action sequences, which allowed him to experiment with a unique performance style. Skarsgård played the titular character of Count Orlok, a particularly physically demanding role, in the gothic horror film Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers. To pull off the terrifying performance, the actor had to lose a lot of weight, experiment with several voices, and wear a lot of prosthetics. He managed to convey the terrifying aspects of the vampire Orlok while still capturing his seductive charm. The end result was a performance that garnered him a lot of critical acclaim and became a horror genre highlight in 2024. The Crow (2024) - Streaming on Lionsgate Play [OTTplay Premium] from August 14, 2025 In The Crow reboot, Skarsgård plays the role of Eric Draven, who is brought back to life to exact revenge for the murder of his fiancée Shelly (FKA Twigs) and himself. The tragic romance and gothic tone of the part called for dramatic acting chops. An original and considerate take on the iconic cult figure, his portrayal of Draven reveals a vulnerable side beneath the violent façade. It: Welcome to Derry (October 2025) - JioHotstar [OTTplay Premium] It: Welcome to Derry is the upcoming series in which Skarsgård will reprise his most famous horror role as Pennywise. The miniseries will go into the background of Derry's haunting and the legend around him, taking place decades before the events of the It movies. Fans are eagerly awaiting his return as the unnerving clown, wondering how he would adapt the act for television while retaining the same terrifying energy that made him iconic in the movies.
