To mark the start of Ichabod series 2 I made a Spotify playlist soundtrack. Songs that kind of inspired the character and the series. And The Brian Jonestown Massacre's 'You Look Great When I'm F*cked Up' is Ichabod's theme song:

Apologies for the self-publicising but people who like Low Life may want to check out my new Robocop series from Dynamite, out in January.

There's an interview and some preview art here:

It's got a similar sense of OTT comedy to Dirty Frank and co, I think. And let's face it, Robocop's basically just a Dredd copy anyway, right

Due to increasing family size I'm having to sell some of my original art, which is a bit gutting but there you go.

This absolutely lovely Simon Coleby Silver Surfer and Galactus piece is going to the highest bidder:

Blatant pluggery alert. The Cla$$war hardcover is imminent and it features much Tooth-related loveliness:

An introduction by Andy Diggle
Three issues and a brand new eight page story by Trev Hairsine
Posters by Mick McMahon and Ben Oliver

Looks very lovely, this:

either the tv went funny or my dvd recorder messed up but I missed the end of the shield on friday. last thing I saw was Claudette being offered the position of Captain.

what happened after that?

Forgive the shameless whoring, but the first issue of my Star Wars comic, Rebellion, is in the shops today.

There's preview pages here:

Just noticed that Wagner's on the guest list, if anyone U.S. readers are thinking of attending. Bolland's also announced.

Bit late this, as I think Episode One started last night on the FX Channel on Sky, but it's bound to be repeated this week sometime.

Anyway, just a heads up that the third season of the best written/acted TV show possibly in the history of telly - THE WIRE - is now on UK TV. And the good news is it's every bit as wonderful as seasons 1 & 2. In fact, the penultimate episode of Season 3 is just about as good as TV gets.

Rob

Missed Saturday's episode due to my video messing up. Don't suppose anyone taped it and would be willing to post it to me? I'd replace the tape and cover postage.

Thanks

Rob

I'm watching my tape of the shield on Saturday night. So dutch strangles the kitty, it falls to the floor and... AHHH the video RUNS OUT!!!!!

What happened? What happened next?

Tell me tell me tell me tell me

Is in the shops. Bought it yesterday, and very nice it is too.

You know the snazzy two-part vehicle that Dredd takes across The Cursed Earth in the classic story of same name? Well, when I was a kid I had a corgi toy of this, although it wasn't sold with a Judge Dredd label or anything to mark it out as vaguely 2000ADish.

Anyway, I was at my parents' at the weekend and my father had found this toy recently during a clean-out, and yes, it is the Dredd Cursed Earth vehicle.

So, anyone know what the score/history was with this? Did Corgi see the design in 2000AD (presumably McMahon's) and make a toy out of it? Or did McMahon copy the Corgi design?

Rob

Simon Pegg's recently done a webchat with empire online and he said he's talking to 2000AD about maybe doing "an extended spin off or graphic novel". That'd be fun.

Probably no new series' of Spaced though. Bastards.

Rob

Forgive a bit of blatant self-promotion but my Cla$$war series from Com.X is about to relaunch and anyone interested can find preview pages at:
