Yes. Although, in rereading I see they have said it would be all six, so I guess IV, V, I, II, III, VI.

There's lots of reasons to criticise comic books, but 'not a sensible solution'? Dangerous thread to pull at buddy.

But will they show them in the superior IV, V, II, III, VI order?

The skinny ones can kill the fat ones, cut open their bellies and climb inside.

At least that's better than geode-blocking. I've still got some dermal abrasion.

"Nah, I ain't Muslim, I just don't dig on swine, that's all."

I still prefer Gregory's Girl, even if it doesn't have Dr. Who in it. A random kid in a penguin suit is much better than a random kid on a dirt bike.

"So then, 'Lazarus' means 'rebirth'. And 'Pit' means 'pit'. And that concludes our intensive three-week course."

You're not wrong that when done badly it's annoying, but one of the things you are taught if you are working in a shared world is to leave hooks and unexplained bits for someone else to come along and fill in later (even if it's just a reader in their imagination). In fact it's one of the joys of the experience if

If the science is all over the place I'm not sure it's Pratchett's fault as much as his co-authors. And they do tell you in the first one about Lies-to-Readers-Of-Popular-Science-Books, so you shouldn't be surprised when a subject you know about isn't exactly… exact.

Foolish human! Doesn't he realise the big bucks is in The Science of [SF franchise]. I know that this has already been done with The Science of Star Trek (spoilers: you have to remodulate the quantum phase alignment), The Science of Dr. Who (spoilers: it's all done with hand-waves) and The Science of the Canopus in

It did annoy me when they replaced all the Galilean transformations with walkie-talkies.

Dear Sir or Madam, I've run out of TV
My brain's starting to work and that worries me
I'd like entertainment with some zombies and shit
And I'm a slob so I don't want to be a paperback reader
Paperback reader!

Yes… but the owner of the copyright licenses other people to do stuff with it, at which point it becomes the Official Saruman of Many Colours Chainsaw Maintenance Kit. Or decides whether to send packs of wild lawyers after people even if they call it the Unofficial 'You Can Run All The Way To Isengard' 10-Week Jogging

How can something be Official if there's no copyright?

"So let me get this straight… I do a cover of an existing song. But I don't change any of the words to be funnier ones? Wow, I had no idea that was possible. That's much easier than what I've been doing for the past 30 years."

This is not the way to get healthy!

Annie Get Your Gun would be great as long as there's no mass shootings that week that would make it seem insensitive.

Waves For Developmen? Ewwww! No.

That's the life they've chosen - they either die or they live long enough to see themselves be called liberals.
