Cristiano Ronaldo is a man of the world. A renaissance man. A gentleman and a scholar. Such a man would be welcome in any book club, including ours. That's why we would like to extend a formal invitation for Cristiano Ronaldo to join our book club here at The18.
Cristiano, please join our book club. We are very interesting folks and are sure you would enjoy yourself. You seem like you'd be a good fit. Think it over.

Every footballer will tell you that nutmegging an opponent is an amazing feeling. This kid seems to have mastered that talent at a very young age. Every person that passes by is a victim to his trickery. Holding an ice cream cone doesn't seem to stop him either — he casually puts one through the legs of a passerby between bites of his cone. That's cold.

Imagine someone from the past, when comic books were a major form of entertainment, travelled forward in time to this weekend. Imagine you met them, and when they mentioned they love comic books, and now that it's the future is there any chance we've been able to give anyone superpowers yet?
Your answer would have to be that the first comic book character we'ver been able to truly recreate is the, uh, it's the Green Goblin.
