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"

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

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
Mar. 10th, 2026 10:19 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.
In light of the advice in the last paragraph, and due to work requirements, I think I will leave things short and sweet, and simply wish a Happy Mar10 Day, to those who celebrate the achievements of video games most prominent plumber.
