Off-Topic Tuesday!

In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.

Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat amongst yourselves.

The Catholic Church in Italy is apparently having a hard time finding new exoecists. I dunno, maybe they saw a movie that put them off the idea.

Reprehensible behaviour in North Carolina as BOTH the Republican and Democrat offices are attacked on the same night. But in a nice moment of humanity overcoming ideology local Democrats started a gofundme to rebuild the Republican offices

A good Saturday for UK sci fi TV coming up as Doctor Who spinoff "Class" debuts on BBC3 on Saturday morning and "Thunderbirds are Go" starts season 2 in the afternoon.

The excellent Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 2 has a trailer and a couple of fun snippets sneakily filmed at NYCC

Jay Rachel Edidin, half of the always enjoyable Jay and Miles Explain the X-Men podcast is currently writing a column about their experiences since they come out as trans, and it offers a fascinating and direct insight on one person's search for their true self. The most recent one looks at finding personally aspirational examples of masculinity in pop culture.

Ultimate Comics Spider-Man: Death of Spider-Man

[cyberghostface]

So here we are, the big finish to Peter Parker's tenure on 'Ultimate Spider-Man' (but not my last post in the series, there's one more). For this arc Bendis was reunited with original artist Mark Bagley. This was a pretty big event for Marvel right down to the ominous previews (which were just 'Death of Spider-Man' leading people to wonder if 616's days were numbered) to the multiple variant covers to the last issue being in a polybag. (I always found the last bit to be kind of funny; they said it was to prevent spoilers but then they went to the press with the ending a day before its release.)

There are things one knows not to do.

There're some who don't know not to do those.

There is one in last month's All-Star Batman.

( It's a nicely done one. )
