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.

Alas, this will have to be a short one due to suddenly materialising work commitments (And that's a shame as I wanted to wax rhapsodic over the latest Doctor Who), so have fun!

Issues 1 and #2'd been Batman three years into his career on the track of a killer who patterned himself after the " Wound Man ".

In issue #2, Batman'd captured the Wound Man - and traced his origins out of Gotham City to ' the Town Without Screams ', Green Fields.

He knew the sobriquet's origin - same as the Wound Man's, illegal dumping by Ace Chemicals, a subsidiary of the Axis Corporation.

The corporation's " CEO and senior partner " Christopher Sionis (some relation to Roman), knowing that the Wound Man'd been delivered into Gotham custody, had goons abduct that living evidence against him.

Batman, out in Green Fields, sifted through the evidence in the house of the Wound Man over the phone to Jim Gordon.

The big thing here is that nobody knows what the Green Lantern is. In the regular DC Universe, Green Lantern is like a known thing all over Earth. Everybody sees that symbol, they know, "Oh, it's one of those space cops with the rings." No space cops, no rings, no lanterns. What is the Green Lantern? It's an enormous object that has fallen on a town... -- Al Ewing

So we were coming up with all kinds of names, both for the red herrings and for the potential host, and we kept circling back to Mary Jane. She's full of story potential — she's one of the great characters in comics, full of so much life and complexity. As soon as we gave ourselves permission to treat a good idea like a good idea, we just got more and more excited about the possibilities. -- Al Ewing
