DC’s action series Krypton lands on OSN: The TV series is set 200 years before the birth of Superman, instead following his grandfather, Seg-El, on planet Krypton. When earthling Adam Strange travels back in time to visit Seg-El and warn him that the planet Krypton is in critical danger of being annihilated, the pair venture on a journey to try and save the planet. The culprit behind all the madness is Brainiac — the universal destroyer of planets, who you might recognize from DC comics. Brainiac is after Superman and is trying to play with the timeline to ensure he never exists by getting rid of his grandfather. The show has the basic plotlines of any superhero show: Dangerous enemies, political clashes, and the humor-adding characters scattered about. You can watch seasons one and two on OSN.

Get ready to get messy with the drool worthy food from 3 Diner, a new diner truck at The Drive By Waterway. The diner has a simple menu, but every item on there is full of flavor and nothing short of mouthwatering. We love the short ribs and fillet sandwiches in particular — the slow-cooked short ribs make the meat tender and incredibly juicy, while the beef fillet sandwich topped with a green cheese sauce hits all the right notes for your taste buds. Don’t forget to dig in their specialty appetizer: Philly Cheese Steak Loaded Fries. And while you’re at it, end your meal with their mini cookie shots, filled with gooey chocolate and toffee.

When I’m Gone, Look for Me in The East shows how the lives of twins, both very different, yet very alike, collide in the search for the next Dalai Lama. The 23-year-old twins, Mun and Chuluun, are different in personality and character: Chuluun studies at a Buddhist monastery in Mongolia, where he adapts smoothly to the institution’s strict routine and discipline. Mun, meanwhile, adopts a Western-like style and lives in the capital of Ulaanbaatar with love for technology, tattoos and smoking after he renounces his robes and decides to end his relationship with the monastery. Their worlds eventually collide and conflicts arise in their quest across Mongolia to look for the Dalai Lama’s heir in this novel by Juan Barry.
