Great prog

Dredd looks to be setting up something very interesting, i like it when we explore more of the dredd world outside of mega city 1

Slaine im having a great time with, the dialogue is brilliant, anything with a mermaid calling someone a donkey ass has to be good.

Indigo Prime i have never read before but i am loving this slice of bonkers sci fi

Sin Dex is a good solid slice of fun

Absolom is quality as always

Top stuff indeed

Just read the prog on my way into work this morning and enjoyed it

Dredd was a good ending to a great story, really liked the art work throughout and the story was top notch, also wouldn't be surprised to see the fall out from this included in a future strip...I think the SJS might come calling as already mentioned.

The Alienist I enjoyed the run and would be happy to see it in the prog again, perfectly fine piece of story telling

Greysuit I have really liked, thought it was a fun send up of the action spy genre, really good. But part of my hopes that it's finished as I think sometimes it's nice to have a proper ending to a story instead of it keep coming back and tarnishing itself by just sort of meandering along (if that makes any sense)

Hope I loved, loved the it first time round and loved it even more this time round. Everything just clicked for me the pace, the tone, the art and the style excellent stuff and hope it comes back sooner than later.

Future Shock was really good as well, didn't see the twist coming at the end which is the whole point yeah really good stuff.

All in all I really enjoyed it and made the commute up the M77 a lot more fun than usual

Another quality prog

Dredd is cracking and I to want to see Harvey do well but I think Wagner is going to pull the rug away at the end...maybe he'll sacrifice himself to save Dredd or something

Scarlet Traces and Brink just continue to be brilliant really enjoy both these

Defoe looked amazing

Cursed keeps going strong and imaginative uses of cutlery are always welcome

One of my friends in work has been loaning me the Bad Machinery collected volumes by John Allison

Never read any of his stuff before this and I have been really enjoying them

Very well written with great characters and some really funny lines of dialogue

Just completed Vanquish and it's a great wee third person shooter with lots of energy and it's pretty action packed throughout. Graphics are still good looking and the banging techno soundtrack just adds to the whole experience.

A very enjoyable game and it's sad that the sequel hasn't really came to anything

Started to play Dead Space now and it's very good so far

Great cover for me

Dredd is moving along nicely, like Harvey and want the big robot to do well but I got a bad feeling that isn't going to happen. Story and art are good and looking forward to seeing where it goes next week

Brink I really enjoyed this first time around and so this is ticking all the right boxes so far. The story is good, hope they stick with the creepy vibes throughout and the art is perfect for it.

Scarlet Traces is another good one for me, I have read the first two volumes in hard back and read the last run in the prog so fully up to date and just really enjoying it.

Future Shocks I like, some are better than others mind you but I don't mind them at all. Used to read a lot of Tales from the Crypt so I do like the single story with twist ending style

Cursed for me is a stand out love the art work and the story/setting puts me in mind of the Mad Max series which are some of my favourite films so it's a big win for me.

Another fantastic prog

Really like the cover, very striking and eye catching

Dredd was great fun, really enjoyed it and the pun at the end was the icing on the cake

Sin Dex was another good one off as well, an interesting character there not sure if we have seen him before as I have not come across him in the Sin Dex I have read so far but I hope we see the devil again in the future...although I think fleeting glimpses for now would be best

Kingmaker ends well for now on an interesting note and looking forward to where we go from here

The Order I really enjoyed this run sometimes I get a bit lost with them but no such problems this time round

Kingdom is always good for me, so no complaints here

Another strong prog

Top prog once again

Dredd concludes very nicely, plus love the non reaction from the man himself at the end. Would like to see Boo Cook doing more Dredd in the future as well

Kingmaker not the strongest it has been but it's obviously setting up something toppermost of the poppermost next issue so it's all good

Sin Dex I enjoyed, thought it was good fun

The Order was brilliant, when a robot chops something in half lengthwise you know it's all good

Kingdom was superb as always

All in all top stuff and can't wait to see how The Order, Kingmaker and Kingdom conclude next week

Just completed Bioshock and its went straight in as one of my favourite games I have played

The setting, the atmosphere, the story, sound effects, characters and weapons were all top class

It's such a well crafted game that even at its more challenging points it never felt too hard or was getting unfair

The setting is so good that I actually found myself wanting to see Rapture in its prime.

First class gaming experience

Next up is God of War 3

Not a fan of that cover, all I can see now is Dredd and his big horse dentures

But inside oh inside is totally different

Dredd is off to a good start, love the art work I have never seen Dredd done in this way and I think it's excellent

Kingmaker I have been enjoying from the start and an issue about dragons fighting space ships, yes please.

Sin Dex I enjoyed, thought it was good fun maybe a bit on the light side but still very enjoyable

The Order is rocking at the moment and I can't wait to see the big robot smash things with its big axe

Kingdom was tremendous, great sense of danger and what an ending

Roll on next week, the prog is on damn fine form

Only the one for me this week

The Dregs issue 2

Another solid issue with great art, characters are developing nicely and the story is coming along well

Black Mask Studios have got something special with this one I feel.

I particularly enjoyed the sequence that was like a classic detective noir story but obviously all just happening in the main characters head

Issue four was scheduled for release next week, the 8th of March, but I have just checked the Dark Horse website and it's now scheduled for the 5th of April

I guess we need to wait a little bit longer for the conclusion now

Two for me this week

Lost Light 3 out. This was an issue with lots of character building and plot building but it did have Whirl letting Killmaster out which was fun. It's still in the process of setting its main story up and introducing the new characters so hopefully once that's all done it will really start hitting its stride

Clean Room 16 this for me is top class stuff. Everything about it is spot on with the writing, the characters and the art. It's one of my favourite new comics I am reading at the moment. Loving the blend of horror and black comedy, fantastic stuff long may it continue.

He's already been mentioned but I would also go for Kurt Russell

Another actor i could watch is JT Walsh, he was a terrific character actor

For sheer body of work I think Frank Welker has to be up there if going down that route
