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 Tories in the UK have their own version of Civil War to deal with as Ian Duncan-Smith, architect and implementor of some of the most swingeing, and grotesquely implemented, cuts in the Welfare State quits because apparently he can't face the ethical implications of the latest proposed cuts, and it's nothing at all to do with a self serving piece of backstabbing in the run up to the EU membership referenedum. in fairness I have yet to see a commentator (who was not also a member of the Tory party) who was not aghast at the mind boggling levels of hypocrisy involved in this move.
Batman vs Superman opens this week... I wish I was more excited by that news, but not really been a fan of Zack Snyders approach in the past... maybe this one will open my eyes to the possibilities.
As I type this I'm seeing news just coming in of a terrorist strike in Belgium. Everyone in Brussels, stay safe!
I was hoping to put in a more light hearted piece to end with, but after that last, I can't quite bring myself to do it.
