Mod Post: 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 among yourselves.

The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than me.

If you're in the UK and not yet resistered to vote for the General Election, we actively encourage you to do so, to participate in the democratic process.

Doctor Who revealed it's season big bad guy, and it's a BIG bad guy, one we haven't seen for around forty nine years, and they got the original actor to return to voice him at the age of 91.

In light of the announcement of the new Watchmen animation, let's petition for the release of the original

Read some Shadowman, but it didn't grab me. Just bog-standard Chosen One/urban fantasy stuff. Doesn't help that Shadowman's logo is just so stupid to me. It's a little cartoon on his chest of a stick figure casting a shadow. Like, DUDE.

I also gave the first volume of Dead Letters a try. Guess I just wasn't in the mood for it. A big "God's gone missing" afterlife noir story with an amnesiac protagonist, everyone secretly working with everyone else behind the backs of everyone else, and really not much to the plot besides trying to keep track of who's betraying who at the moment. The "what if angels were dicks" plot point is just too stale for me; if I wanted to see Hellblazer reheated in the microwave, I'd watch Supernatural.

Jack's replaced the shadow figure on his chest with a bone necklace and a jacket ensemble a while back.
