"I think if you asked any citizen on the streets of Latveria who their favorite hero is, they'll tell you it's Doom. And it's not because someone is holding a gun to their head. He is very much the people's hero and their beloved leader. He doesn't need to use any propaganda." -- Dan Slott

Mod Post: Off Topic Tuesday

[icon_uk]

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 Mueller Report was completed and identified no sinks between POTUS 45 and Russian interference in the 2016 election. He pointedly made no judgment one way or the other regarding possible obstruction of justice, and what happens about that is still up in the air. But for those who like to play the long game, Mitch O'Connell, human/turtle hybrid, has refused to release the whole report and it looks like a lot of people disagree with his choice there.

The Disney/Fox deal went through, though we've had a dedicated thread on that one already.

This weeks Brexit analogy is the long drawn out inhlation as you wake up on day three of a sinus migraine and you're out of any and all medicines.

We really are in uncharted waters here, with Parliament voting to allow backbench MP's to take control away from Government Ministers and Cabinet. Though there are caveats, and limits, and no guarantee that the Prime Minister will even take notice/action,

A March in London managed to have somewhere in the region of a million people attend, and was entirely peaceful, with no arrests, and an online petition on the Gov.uk website to revoke Article 50 broke every record going by reaching over 5 million votes in something like four days. And yet, and yet....

Spare a thought to those affected by Cyclone Idia in Africa, which devastated parts of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi, and which has been followed by tropical storms to boot.

Sorry, haven't had much of a chance for pop culture viewing this week, so you'll have to fill that in for yourself.

Oh what the heck, some last minute additions (and with thanks to tripodeca113 for the reminder about the first one)

Supernatural is ending as of season 15, I'm sure it will be back as nothing and no one stays dead on that show.

Apple are moving into the streaming market

Doom Patrol managed another blinder, introducing the ACTUAL Doom Patrol (the name hasn't been used up until this story, and it's not Cliff, Larry, Rita, Jane and Cyborg, but references several old Doom Patrol members, from the 60's to the 80's; Steve "Mento" Dayton, Arani "Celsius" Calder, Rhea "Lodestone" Jones and Joshua "Tempest" Clay. Oh, and referencing a story SO weird that it simply HAD to be an actual 60's story, about a jukebox that drives people insane.

Zack Snyder got in a bit of a tizz about people being foolish enough to believe that Batman doesn't kill.
