Internment camp, not concentration camp. There is a rather large difference.

You’d have to ask Kirkman, but I imagine it’s to maximize the characters’ fear & uncertainty, rather than have them standing around going “this is like the zombie apocalypse or something” and know what to do.

Creator Robert Kirkman has stated that this takes place on a world where “zombies” never it made it into popular culture. So no movies, shows, etc. to popularize the term and familiarize people with the concept and what you might want to do when faced with the living dead.

I’d like to add that while all the characters get more fleshed out, the women in particular transform from “I’ll go wash dishes while the menfolk kill stuff” to fully active protagonists in their own right.

Sorry, didn’t catch the humor, and must have missed the red allergy story. Which is for the best, probably.

Actually, in a previous version (eposide? chapter?) of these Kitchenette narratives was a indeed a recounted tale of a woman who was “allergic to crunchy foods”.

I had earl grey - lavender icecream while at Universal Studios earlier this year (apparently it’s a thing in the Harry Potter books), and it was pretty amazing.

Amazing video considering that the brown dwarf is 20 light years away.

But isn’t Static usually portrayed as fairly young? Which makes it hard to regularly put him alongside older, established heroes like WW, Batman, etc.. Although to a degree, I have the same issue with Cyborg, especially given his Teen Titan background.

I saw an interview with Weaver where she said that she originally wasn’t interested in the fourth Alien movie until she read the scene where Nu-Ripley discovers her failed clone predecessors, and how that impacted the character.

for my money they’ve been the best female friendship in comics...ever.

I’m in Washington DC, and originally from the NYC area. I’ve only seen the Milky Way twice: the first time way out in the desert in AZ many years ago (a view now probably spoiled by light pollution), and later on a flight to Sydney with my face pressed up against the window. So amazing!

This video makes me want to take a vacation somewhere where I can actually see the stars/Milky Way (I live in a city where I might see 4-5 stars at night).

Hmm, the icons on the right are correct for Scruff, but the top of the screen looks wrong. Pft, details.

Wait in line Buster, some of us have been waiting *decades* for this. ;)

Wait, wait, WAIT. I’ve been searching for my husband for 40+ years. Once I find him, then you can have all the (remaining) gay marriages.

Is the trolley car thing still running? I have a picture of me & my sister on it when we lived in Pittsburgh 40 years ago....

That people actually live here in Washingon, DC. It’s not just a collections of Government buildings and monuments, we have about 660,000+ people who (often grudgingly) call DC home.

Except Venus doesn’t have much of a magnetosphere either, *and* its day lasts 243 Earth-days; Venus rotates very slowly, which present a new set of problems for human colonists.

Except supposedly the aliens were hovering a couple of thousand feet above DC, while the Washington Monument is only 555 feet tall. The Capitol, despite the hill, sits slightly lower than that (and might not have been under the alien ship anyway — I can’t recall how large it was supposed to be). The buildings were…
