    Default Is the "BREAKING" banner broken?

    Maybe it's just on my computer, but the "Breaking" news banner across the top of the page seems to be rotating between the same two stories ("Odinson's Future Unfolds" and "Spidey's Best Power is Science") ever since Thursday evening (EDT).
    How long is news suppose to be "Breaking" before it's no longer broken?

    Mine's doing the same thing, so you're not alone! We also haven't had any comic reviews on the site for a while either.

    EDIT: Just noticed that it's only doing it when viewing the forum. When I view the main site, the breaking stories banner seems to be working fine.

    Count me in for this phenomenon as well. Haven't been sure what to make of it.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    Twelve hours later and it's still the same two items as "Breaking"?

    Maybe it'll be different once Monday rolls around?

    Well, it's Monday morning where I am, and the situation is still the same?

    Same here. The banner works fine on the main site, but is still broken when viewing the forum.

    Hahaha this is really annoying. Nobody cared about Spidey's best power being science when it actually was "breaking" news days ago. Hyped for that Odinson book though.

    I'm seeing the same thing in multiple browsers on my laptop. It happens on my phone and tablet too.

    Somehow, I thought some one was angry and wanted to make sure we knew Thor was unworthy and Spidey was just for geeks...

    I also wondered if maybe it was a nefarious plot by Marvel to make sure no DC news would get noticed.

    The banner seems to be working with new updates this afternoon, I noticed.
