The Mortal Thor #7 - "The Accelerationist"
Mar. 17th, 2026 10:34 pmlaughing_tree posting in scans_daily
Ryan was telling me, "Oh, we're going to do this scene in the Doom crossover book." And I was like, "I don't think Thor would say that." And Thor did kind of say that. And I was like, we have to kill Thor now, we have to kill him. I mean, he was being reborn anyway but now he's got to be reborn. -- Al Ewing

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
Mar. 17th, 2026 08:46 amicon_uk posting in 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 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.
LEGO have announced the release of their first ever Tintin set, the iconic rocket from Destination Moon/Explorers on the Moon, which will come with minifigures of Tintin, Captain Haddock, Snowy and Thomson and Thompson.
Maul: Shadow Lord got a trailer in advance of it's April release, showing nice graphics but a lot of very very dark scenes in terms of lighting. We get it; "Dark Side", "Shadow Lord"... at least turn on a damn light every now and again.
The Buffy Reboot has been cancelled before making it to screen, and Sarah Michelle Gellar" has spoken about why.
Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity won points for unespectedness when they introduced their latest Gavan but I won't spoil it for anyone in advance of clicking on the link.
Jay and Miles X-Plain the X-Men had an interesting discussion about genetics in the X-verse, with an actual qualified geneticist.
The Oscars happened, but I wasn't paying attention, so have no idea if anything unexpected happened.

Flow #1
Mar. 16th, 2026 03:00 pmcyberghostface posting in scans_daily
"I’m so anxious to share this story, which was inspired by politicians wanting to ban sex ed and basics about biology in schools. It got me thinking about how the resulting void of info could be exploited—which, in this case, is done by bullies at a nature camp. And a decade later, their actions come back to haunt them. It’s a bit like Carrie meets Yellowjackets. I’m grateful that Mad Cave gave us total freedom to let the narrative—and the blood—flow.” -- Paula Sevenbergen

Trancing with the Stars: JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE #27-28 (JLI 70)
Mar. 15th, 2026 06:03 pmtcampbell1000 posting in scans_dailyThese two issues will be Giffen, Jones, and Sears’ last collaboration, though we’ll see a bit more of Sears in JLA. I think the brutal paranoia of this arc plays to Sears' strengths.
Last time out, the JLE repaired the dying Starro’s vessel to send him home. It blew up before reaching the stratosphere, and the JLE-ers think they’ve accidentally killed an old League foe just after he mended his ways. Miles away, starfish began to rain on London.
The Leaguers slink back toward their headquarters, still mortified at their apparent failure, unaware that anything more serious might be wrong with London since they left it.
( Imagine sleeping through Brexit. )

Abnett's back writing Guardians!!!
Mar. 15th, 2026 08:20 pmshakalooloo posting in scans_dailyYeah, Cosmic Ghost Rider's in the team, but we do have Amadeus Cho to make up for it! And Marvel generously allowed the use of Gamora. And Abnett can get back to what he had been doing with Darkhawk.
Of course, a return to Abnett Guardians also means a return to after-action video logs!

Performing some traffic maintenance today

dw_maintenanceHappy Saturday!
I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!
If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.
No More Star Wars?: JUSTICE LEAGUE AMERICA #51 …EUROPE #26 (JLI 69)
Mar. 13th, 2026 02:47 pmtcampbell1000 posting in scans_daily
Warning for some humor that could be read as mocking the mentally ill…though I don’t think they’re the real target here.
By now, the Justice League International era had done plenty of traditional superhero yarns like the arcs spotlighting the Crimson Fox, the Extremists, Despero, even General Glory. But it’d also tried lots of non-traditional subjects: moving, repo jobs, feline violence, membership drives, pranks.
So when Starro…the Justice League’s oldest enemy…came back at the end of JLE #25 but was all “Hey, I come in peace,” you really didn’t know whether to believe him or not.
( I did, but only because I read the issues out of order. )
X-Men United #1
Mar. 12th, 2026 12:13 ammastermahan posting in scans_daily
X-Men United, originally solicited as X-Men Arsenal*, is the follow-up to Exceptional X-Men. Same creative team, same core cast, but an altered premise. It's the training book, but with more characters, and now they have a mental plane headquarters named Graymatter Lane.
*Go on, get the football jokes out of your system. It'll feel good.

Worm Fox Priest Sex Vibes?!: JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE #24-25 (JLI 68)
Mar. 11th, 2026 02:58 pmtcampbell1000 posting in scans_daily
Warning for some uncomfortable sexual symbolism. Keith Riffen, Ger-words Jones, bArt Sears.
Giffen’s Justice League plots are never boring, but this story feels extra unhinged, its elements strung together more by Freudian associations than his usual grounded, working-class perspective. It wouldn’t surprise me to learn the production process involved a six-pack of story dice and some of the more stimulating drugs.
( Amphetamines yes, marijuana no. )
Venom #254-255 - "Death Spiral, Part 3"
Mar. 10th, 2026 04:56 pmlaughing_tree posting in scans_daily
There was a video game for Maximum Carnage way back in the day, and I was a Production Assistant on the commercial for it. My job was to drive the truck full of camera equipment from Long Island to Manhattan, pick up my producer, get breakfast and bring it all to set… but I didn’t realize that I left the key to the lock on the truck at home until we got the breakfast. My producer sat on giant coffee urns and held bagels in his lap as I drove to set – but I was so frazzled that I drove the wrong way down the West Side Highway and was pulled over by a cop!!! -- Joe Kelly
Maximum Carnage! I have to say, it’s been a minute, and I was a Clone Saga do-or-die back around when it landed – but I remember a whole pile of villains infighting and yelling at each other and hating each other as much as (or more than) they hated the comics. Can’t beat that! -- Charles Soule
During the 90s, I was off reading Proper Comics like Hate, Eightball, and Love & Rockets, so Maximum Carnage passed me by a little bit – I hear Carnage is pretty Maximum in it, but that’s about all I know. -- Al Ewing

They Won't Even Have to Update the Team Roster on the Recap Page!
Mar. 10th, 2026 05:55 pmshakalooloo posting in scans_dailyOkay, so my last few posts have featured images that not everyone could view. So, let's try ImgBB, and see if that works better.
That better? Or worse? Anyway, stuff happens in this issue that you may not want to see. And I'm not talking about the mutant nudity.

Star Wars: Jar Jar #1

"I've always loved the inner child that Jar Jar brought out in all of us, especially me. But there comes a time where everyone must let go of the child and take responsibility for their actions, and we see Jar Jar come to that realisation in this one-shot." -- Ahmed Best
