You know, I've always had a fondness for the body swap trope, and why not? Their funny little role reversal stories, always full of endearing antics as two people fumble about in brand new bodies with brand new lives. And such a versatile plot, too? With the right combinations of characters and settings, no two swaps need ever be quite the same! So yeah, I know it's 'Halloween Theme Week' and all that, but you can't exactly make a body swap with a kid and a toddler scary, now can you? So why don't we visit a story from this innocuous little anthology comic, and see what kind of a silly and heartwarming romp we get up to?

Oct. 24th, 2017 12:19 amsuperboyprime in scans_daily
"My friend Sam who falls down a lot (I can say that because she doesn't read my comics) once referred to me as 'shitty Bendis' and it was one of the nicest compliments anyone had given me at that point in my career." - Matthew Rosenberg

The Kingdom: Son of the Bat - "Convergence"
Oct. 23rd, 2017 11:39 pmlaughing_tree in scans_daily
Partly because the artwork was rushed and largely inappropriate to the subject matter, but mostly because I was simply having to produce too much material in too short a time — seven scripts all at once! — and ended up putting most of my attention to the five “middle” books. Say what you like about KINGDOM #1 and #2, which aren’t great, but I genuinely feel that Offspring, Planet Krypton and Son of the Bat are as good as anything I’ve ever written or likely ever will. -- Mark Waid

Mod Post- Theme Week - Halloween!
Oct. 23rd, 2017 10:45 amicon_uk in scans_dailyGreeting my pretties,
It being the week leading up to All Hallows Eve, otherwise known as Hallowe'en, your beloved, and only slightly scary (in the right light) Mod Team, deem it a fine and fitting time for a proper Theme Week.
We've had some horror scans posted already, so our thanks to those who have contributed, but now's the time for more of you to get involved! We want your horror, we want your terror, we want your FEAR! (Ahem, sorry about that, channelling Vincent Price for a moment there)
What stories scared you? What stories made you afraid to go upstairs in the dark by yourself, or stretch your foot down to the end of the bed because of what might be lurking under the sheets? What comic story has had an image that lingered with you long after you'd closed the book?
We want to see them, we want to enjoy the frisson of thrills that horror can bring, so please do make an effort to share them with us! And use the tag - Genre: horror if you would please, so we can easily find them in the future!
As Rod Serling's words from "The Twilight Zone" put it;
"Enjoy these brief excursions into the other places ... the odd places, the strange places, the different ones.
The denizens ofthe Twilight Zone Scans_Daily are odd ones, indeed. They run pretty much a gamut of the most unexpected bystanders and players in life’s game . . .
You’ll see the witches, the warlocks, the elves and gnomes, the space ships and time machines.
All the odd ones and the not-quite-right ones . . . and, needless to say, we hope you’ll enjoy these tales from the strange and shadowy places .... "
Okay, at least half of that could describe scans_daily on your average Wednesday, but we want MORE!
So fly my pretties, fly, and scare the living crap out of us all!

“The cat is such a perfect symbol of beauty and superiority that it seems scarcely possible for any true aesthete and civilised cynic to do other than worship it.” - H. P. Lovecraft
This is an adaptation of Lovecraft's story from Jason Thompson.
Warning for animal cruelty.

NoScans - Justice League Action (and something for Ladybug fans)
Oct. 22nd, 2017 11:36 amicon_uk in scans_dailyJustice League Action has been producing some terrific episodes, taking a sort of "Brave and the Bold" take on the wider DC Universe.
They've also released a series of shorts, and I think I rather like this one which showcases some problems encountered when Firestorm faces Metallo and tries to transmute his Kryptonite heart.
( Wackiness ensues )
and for my next trick
( Miraculous Ladybug Season 2 )

INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #11: When Tony met MJ
Oct. 22nd, 2017 12:34 amstarwolf_oakley in scans_dailyHere's a page from a flashback to when Tony Stark met Mary Jane Watson. I am not quite sure when it takes place, but it happens when Mary Jane was a model and when Tony was hitting the sauce. So it is before IRON MAN #128?
