Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
Aug. 5th, 2025 08:27 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.
I will note that the decision to pave over the White House Rose Garden whilst also planning a new massive gold trimmed ballroom says something about POTUS 47's sense of aesthetics, and what it says is a word I won't use in mixed company.
On the good news side, London's Trans Pride event for 2025 had a reported 100,000 in attendance.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day got a teeny, tiny ilttle teaser and does seem to showcase a more classic Spider-suit than we've seen in a while.
Eyes of Wakanda seemed to drop without any warning at all. I didn;t even know this was a thing that was happening until this dropped.
(Okay, both of those were sort of ON topic, but I can live with the shame)

NS: Nearly 400 Artists Threaten to Boycott Angoulême Festival
Aug. 4th, 2025 02:48 pmcygnia posting in scans_dailyhttps://www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/2025/08/03/nearly-400-artists-boycott-angouleme-festival/
Nearly 400 artists and 12 associations are signatories to a petition threatening to boycott the 2026 Angoulême International Comics Festival. The petition accuses the festival’s contracted management company, 9eArt+, of retaliating against a female employee who reported a rape at the 2024 event and criticizes the festival’s organizers (FIBD) for not only resisting efforts to replace 9eArt+ but is considering a merger with the company. The signatories state that if FIBD does not open the management contract to an open RFP, they will call for a “massive boycott” of the next festival to be held in January 2026.
Signatories include four of the last five Grand prix winners: Anouk Ricard (2025), Posy Simmonds (2024), Julie Doucet (2022), Chris Ware (2021), as well as notable American cartoonists: Art Spiegelman (Grand prix 2011) and Alison Bechdel. You can see the full list of associations, and signatories artists on MesOpinions. Additionally, at the time of this writing, 2,322 other individuals have signed the petition.
