I'm going to suggest we stop making new threads every month, they rarely get very long (February had 5 pages) and it kinda kills the momentum of any discussion we were having at the end of the month.

BRs are a quick-play thing, you get in, play 5 minutes and you're up for the next match. Fortnite is generally more chaotic than most, with each "season" introducing some shakeup to the maps. It's not my thing mostly because there's no tutorial or training so you have to learn by dying repeatedly, but it is something special.

The recently release Apex Legends was surprisingly well received in the Games subforum, mostly for being made by the Titanfall devs.

I don’t post much, but agreed on the removal of monthly threads.

Right now I’m working my way through a whole bunch of Disney books from the middle of the last century. Having read all of the Marvel silver age cape books and lots of the other books too, it’s shocking just how amateurish much of it was vs what Barks was putting out decades earlier. Yeah there’s some lovely stereotypes, but from the clean cartoonish lines to the layouts to the dialogue and adventure plots, Disney’s stuff was a cut above.

Don Rosa isn’t Carl Barks (he’s better), but for those who haven’t tried the Donald Duck stories, in April’s there’s a new Fantagraphics Life and Times of Scrooge being released that’s suppose to be the “director’s cut” version of the story. Sight unseen, highly recommended.

Watching a doc series about Asia's monarchies and they're talking about how every year there's a big protest/fight in the streets between militant emperor supporters and left wingers who feel it's an antiquated useless office that led Japan to near-ruin during WWII

So now you want them biennially? Make up your mind!


I think quarterly is a good compromise. That way the OP doesn't get too stale and we don't end up with pages and pages of old rear end posts nobody cares about.

BRs are extremely good and maybe future of MP shooters.

Apex Legends is not very good though. Beyond the amazing ping system, thr game is a worse version of Fortnite or Blackout.

The entire universe was destroyed in Secret Wars number one and the put every single book on hiatus then relaunched everything with a new number 1 when Secret Wars finished and rebuilt the universe. Except there were delays for Secret Wars, so they relaunched everything before it actually finished.

Didn't really affect much except Miles was in the 616 and Doom was handsome.
