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 scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.
Every couple of weeks I dive into the headlines, hoping there might be some news that it's actually possible to share without a mental health warning. And again I am disappointed.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 starts this week, so there's that, I guess.
Oh, and another UK heatwave, with the possibility of another this coming weekend. Yay?

Words and pencils: Dan Jurgens
Inks: George Perez
I gave up on the classic Teen Titans because the ‘hip’ lingo was too much. I lost all interest in New Teen Titans after George Perez left. Roy Harper put me off revisiting the Devin Grayson Titans by being a massive ass. Let’s hope I stick with this version for longer.

thanekos) wrote in scans_daily2025-07-13 04:59 pmBatman: Dark Patterns #7 began Pareidolia.
Pareidolia is related to patterns, echoing this three-years-in Batman maxi-series' subtitle.
It's also related to perception, echoing the motifs of the two previous stories. We Are The Wounded concerned tactile feeling, and The Voice In The Tower was audial - it'd ended on the rejection and acceptance of guiding voices.
Pareidolia opens on the acknowledgement of another motif that occurred in those two stories: ' [Gotham City, y]ou have always suffered fires. '
( The acknowledger's Batman. )

On the surface, Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion is a story about Miles Morales returning to a very different Ultimate Universe to rescue his sister. Looking at how the story plays out, it's a promotional showcase for the various Ultimate comic titles, with Miles visiting each one in turn in the hopes of getting a reader to try out a new title. See how cool Spider-Man is in issue 1, check out Wakanda in issue 2, look at these funky X-Men is issue 3...
What's most interesting to me though, is that issue 2 is where we get a little more insight into what's up with 6160 Hank Pym. We get Killmonger saying:
and we also get Hank monologuing over "What do we do for the people we love?"

thanekos) wrote in scans_daily2025-07-12 11:18 amBattlestar Galactica: Gods and Monsters is an interquel for the 2000s remake.
It came out over 2016-2017, several years after that'd finished - part of what Dynamite Entertainment was doing with Battlestar Galactica then.
It's a comic of something that wasn't originally a comic where the script and art aren't " This should've just been a photoplay. "
It's very neatly spliced into its source series - issue #1 opens on the " Blackbird ", the stealth Viper built in the season 2 episode Flight of the Phoenix.
Colonial Fleet-wide news echoed the note on which that'd ended - the Blackbird's construction as a reminder that " We can accomplish miracles. "
( That pricked Gaius Baltar. )
