MEDIA HIGHLIGHTS:

Read the first four pages of The Sandman/Locke & Key comic crossover in exclusive preview by Christian Holub in Entertainment Weekly.

What do The Sandman and Locke & Key have in common? Well, in addition to both being critically-acclaimed dark fantasy comics, both sagas are currently being adapted as Netflix TV shows (Locke & Key finished one season and is working on its second, while The Sandman recently announced casting for its major characters). But the biggest connection between the two will soon be the special crossover miniseries, Locke & Key / The Sandman Universe: Hell & Gone, set to launch next month. EW has an exclusive preview of the first four pages of issue #1.

How Much Watching Time Do You Have This Weekend? Check out … the final batch of "Wynonna Earp" episodes by Margaret Lyons in The New York Times.

This cult-fave demon-hunting western, starring Melanie Scrofano as Wynonna Earp, descendant of Wyatt, returns this weekend for its final six episodes. While the mythology is a little too involved to start watching this close to the end, newcomers can still enjoy the show's punchy dialogue and overall campy sensibility, especially on this week's installment, which includes an engagement party where everyone falls under a love spell. If you're not sure what to do with your "Buffy" love these days, try this.
