I was told it was the words to an English football team song recorded with that Baddel chap, could have been a wind up for all I know

Back on topic, at the time I was too young to get the pun in "Gasbah" in Rogue Trooper. Later on I thought it was just a pun on the Clash song. Years later found out what a casbah was. I'm thick like that.

Talking of Bad Company, and as a massive Clash fan it never went over my head, but Joe Scummer - Joe Strummer.

Huh. That never once occurred to me, and I'm really fond of that character (despite the fact we basically know nothing about him - he's got such a cool look.)

Oh for fuck's sake, I can't believe I never copped that one.

In Prog 500 there were pages written and drawn by past masters with many in-jokes. One that for some reason always stuck with me was on the page drawn by Ian Gibson which I think was written by Alan Moore; one character says "Umberto what?". The only Umberto I know of is Eco, does anyone know the relevance of this?

The penny just dropped on Slabhead the Strontium Dog ([spoiler]slaphead[/spoiler]). Of course, it is possible it occurred to me before and didn't stick, but I'd be just using that as a figleaf to try and preserve my modesty, when we know I'd need a dirty great big figleaf (to cover up my oblivious ignorance, not my winkle, as I'm hung like a mouse*).

"Umberto what?".

Gibson used Q.Twerk 'cute work' and Umberto, (IIRC that was his mothers maiden name)as a pseudonym for his work.

I'm still not really sure what it's supposed to mean although I have a suspicion it's "break." I used to think it must be "black" because that's what colour cameras were.

Thank you SO much for scratching that itch, I appreciate it.
