It’s hard to believe, but that’s the football season finished. Except, that is, for the various league playoffs, the World Cup just three weeks away, and the friendly internationals in between.

Jack's back with a bang
Jack’s back, covered as he is in scars inflicted by eight series of fist-fights, shootouts, drugs and the odd momentary death.

Hunters close in on rivals
With the exception of discovering one’s ex marching up the beach (which, under normal circumstances, you’d probably run away from), everything else this week has been about the pursuit: of power and thrones; of quirky treasures; and of sporting glory.
