Ronald Reagan's first appearance in comics doesn't foreshadow his political career at all. It shows him only as an actor--with plans to keep acting until he's old enough to play parts with his glasses on.
( He could've played Clint Eastwood's dad. )

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
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.
A hearty congratulations to anyone who took part in the "No Kings Day" rallies across the US, which were universally peaceful and appear to have attracted a turnout of over 8 million people.
A happy Diwali to those who celebrate!
Time Magazines choice of photo of POTUS47 for their cover did not go down bigly at the White House.
So possibly the demolition of parts of the White House to make way for the new Ballroom were just a little cathartic destruction?
Credit where it's due, Sanae Takaichi has become Japan's first ever female Prime Minister, which is groundbreaking. Though, as she is a "staunch conservative and admirer of the late former British PM Margaret Thatcher" who is also opposed to same sex marriage, one suspects it won't make that much difference
A "heist" at the Louvre in Paris has caused global headlines. And whilst, yes it was done with a modicum of style and a minimum of violence, seems likely to have been carried out by organised crime so the chances of the Crown Jewels of France being recovered intact seems vanishingly small, which is a tragedy.
Longtime youtuber favrouites Dan and Phil have publicly confirmed they are a couple. I confess I am oblivious to this whole thing, but it seemed to cause a stir amongst the young'uns so I'll mention it here and wish them well. (See, I'm still down with the kids! When I'm not shouting at them to get off my lawn)
Oh, and the NinjaKidz Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers trailer dropped. Alas, the incredibly heavy use of AI slop for the effects was painful, to the extent I'm not even going to share a link to it, so here's "The Rainbow Connection" instead, because you can't go wrong with Kermit the Frog.

(Warning for one scene of implied sexual violence, albeit one I missed on first reading. Also, warning for a brief scene with Donald Trump.)
Comic books often tell stories about the most powerful people on Earth, so they've always had a curious relationship with the actual most powerful person on Earth: the United States president.
( This is comic BOOKS, so let's agree not to count the DOONESBURY collections, no matter how much they feel like graphic novels. )

“In Batman we’ve found someone who has even less time for Deadpool’s antics than Wolverine, but a city-wide threat from the Joker makes strange bedfellows (literally, if Deadpool had his way). It’s been a blast letting Deadpool loose in Gotham City and watching what happens.” -- Zeb Wells

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.
Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.
Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
