at least it wasn't Attack of the Clones!

Which oddly always stirs the most intriguing of memories and interest, and then you watch it.

Stoppard has a magic touch.

Joe Biden is likely a one-term President. Apart from being elderly, he's Reagan II and not particularly Progressive – which is what many of his electorate want him, and Kamala Harris, to be. The Democrats will see the 'greatest amount of votes for a candidate in US history' as tacit approval of their usual MO and disregard rural America, again.

No doubt the Republicans will seize the gift they've been given and mobilise the huge army of believe any aul shite zealots Trump has amassed and continue to build towards their one-party state – only they'll be more clever about it and run a Latino candidate next time, or sumpin' like that.

'Guising' is a new one on me. We always said the standard 'trick or treat', but when I moved to Dublin, I was told that was an American thing, and 'real' Irish kids said 'help the Halloween party'.  Which sounds kind of shite, and was probably only a Dublin thing that has since died out.

Never heard of 'Help the Halloween party', it was usually 'Any apples or nuts?' in Dubland.

Hershey running away from her recently rescued family —that she played no active part in saving— to chase blue energy, feels odd.

What a great start to the new season.

[spoiler]Is it Boba though? Or a surviving clone trooper?[/spoiler]

Wouldn't be much significance to it being [spoiler]not-Boba[/spoiler], and they've all ready pulled that trick with [spoiler]Cobb Vanth being not-Boba[/spoiler]. [spoiler]Clone troopers would be too old or dead as they had accelerated aging whereas Boba didn't[/spoiler]. [spoiler]It's Boba[/spoiler].

Rathmines clinging on there with one Westminster seat.

They'll become the NIxit Party, determined to have NI rejoin the UK.

BrexNIt wasn't a huge vote to begin with (and neither will Irexit).

For all these guys leaving they have too fully understand as well that they are doomed to write only other peoples creations. 

Al Ewing's got a creator owned comic at BOOM!.

I'm morbidly curious to see how they integrate with the Dail, even though I know that no matter how the details pan out the end result will be an absolute fucking disaster.

They'll keep them in Stormont for a few years just to see if they fuck-off. I more curious what they'll change their name to.

Antibodies are not guaranteed to last and T-cell immunity doesn't stop you getting or spreading it, it just helps lessen the severity of your symptoms, apparently.

When was the last episode of 13th Floor? How many volumes still to go because I stopped my subscription to Eagle at the end volume 2?

The title lasted for another year so there should be enough material for one more volume.

I'd just had a nightmare about some evil global organisation with a three-armed swastika as a symbol, then woke up and immediately read a story in the first issue that featured exactly that.

Cythron still operating in the timestream.

... should be watched as a double-bill with Blue Collar.

The Dark Crystal show exceeded the original.
