As much as I like Kirby’s work, I’m not sure a psychedelic science fiction adventure is the best fit for the Black Panther (he says when he has cut out all the psychedelic bits)

My goal was to create a story that'd slide easily into the original Giant-Size if you squinted, and I'm pretty happy with how that turned out. -- Al Ewing

Knightfall prelude.

I was this close to skipping these issues. The art is ugly and the villain is an annoying little twerp. I thought I had better post them for completion's sake.

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.

Following recent legal challenges from the current US Administration, Harvard University is offering a free audit on their course on American Government and Constitutional Foundations, though you need to pay if you want the certificate at the end.

To celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Jem cartoon and doll line, Hasbro has had original singing voice of Jem Britta Phillips, rerecord six tracks from the original series, specifically for streaming in July. The first, a "reimagining" of the original theme was released early. (Sadly, no sign of The Misfits returning... as yet)

Doctor Who had a LOT of setup to do for the coming big season finale. I would particularly recommend this weeks "Doctor Who: Unleashed" the behind the scenes making-of series for each episode, which has a fascinating piece on how you design and create a set which is specifically to be used by people with multiple categories of disability, it's genuinely eye opening.

There were at least four other things I meant to mention but once again, deadline pressures mean I have to keep this short.
