Through embalming and sealed caskets advertised for “eternal rest,” the American funeral industry caters to our anxiety over bodily decay. In 1903, a Russian-born inventor in Herkimer, New York, named Joseph Karwowski proposed a radical way of preserving corpses: suspending them in glass cubes. Patented as a “Method of Preserving the Dead,” Karwowski provided diagrams and directions “whereby a corpse may be hermetically incased within a block of transparent glass” and thus “maintained for an ind

Well, that was disappointing. “Art For Art’s Sake” scuttles some of the goodwill earned by last week’s two episodes and overall, may be the weakest of Daredevil: Born Again. In its efforts to push the story along, the episode accidentally shines a light on what might’ve been lost amid the show’s creative shakeup. Of the main cast, Heather has felt like the least developed character, despite being in the orbit of the central leads. A therapist dating a retired-ish superhero and helping the villa

The video game The Last of Us Part II is filled with unforgettable moments. Life or death decisions, big revelations, all of it. In our minds though, the best moment in the game, and we wrote about this when it came out, takes place in an empty, decrepit museum. It’s a place where Joel (Pedro Pascal on the show) brings Ellie (Bella Ramsey on the show) for a very special present. A place we see briefly come to life in the latest trailer for The Last of Us season two, which starts April 13. Fans

The first time I went to Japan, I was in the air longer than I was on the ground. It was for a press event and while I walked around a bit, between sleep and work I didn’t really get to see anything.

I’m turning 45 in April and a trip to Japan for a Star Wars convention sounded like a fun way to celebrate. But I wasn’t gonna make the same mistake again—no quick trip in and out. Th

When a group of amateur treasure seekers set out on an expedition in Poland at the end of January, they weren’t sure what they’d find. On previous trips, while sweeping the ground with metal detectors, they found fascinating trinkets, including thirteenth-century Carolingian dynasty coins. This time around, they found something more mighty: a big honking sword from the Middle Ages. The giant blade, which was clearly meant to be handled with two hands, was found alongside two axes in the country
