scans_dailyIn 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.
Words fail me in trying to describe the American political scene at the moment...though in fairness it would challenge most people, and I can't afford to hire Clive Barker as a ghostwriter.
I will say that as I'm not given to conspiracy theories, I won't comment on the astonishing convenience of a right wing VP elect) with a track record of homophobia) attending a play as associated with ethnic and gender diversity in casting as Hamilton gainging feet of newspaper column space, on the self same day that the P Elect settled out of court (for three times the expected amount) over the Trump University fraud case (which got inches of column space further down the page)... however if I WERE the sort who was given to conspiracy theories....
(And for the record, the address that was given to the VP Elect was, IMHO, a masterfully polite and passionate plea... if that sort of speech causes outrage to the P and VP Elect, imagines what actual political wrangling might do to the poor delicate flowers)
Oh, and as a Brit I'm tempted to say that P Elect is welcome to have Nigel Farage to do with as he see's fit for as long as he likes, with our compliments and blessings (not a phrase I'd use under any other circumstances) provided he never comes back, and he's never made the UK Ambassador.
Brexit continues lurching towards what might be an omnishambles or might be a flustercuck... the jury is still out on which it will be.
New LEGO sets for next year will include a bendy armed Ms Marvel minfigure (and Captain America in aviation jacket because why the hell not), as well as a wave of blind bagged minifigures for The LEGO batman movie which has my wallet weeping already for sheer nuttiness, the line up includes Lobster-Lovin' Batman, the Living Eraser, Zodiac Master, King Tut, Pink Power Batgirl, Dick Grayson, Orca, Fairy Batman, Glam Metal Batman, Clan of the Cave Batman, Vacation Batman, Arkham Asylum Joker, Calculator, Red Hood, Commissioner Gordon, Barbara Gordon, March Harriet, Mime, Catman, Nurse Harley Quinn
And to close, I'm not saying Scottish people are cheap, but sometimes we won't even pay for the colour version of rainbows.

Maybe a few quibbles (criminal waste of Elba), but definitely a major improvement over the last one.
... which isn't really saying much, but hey.
(I particularly liked the Enterprise nods. They even included the zippers!)
