Last post by Hawkmumbler - Today at 05:34:23 PMSPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO: STAR BLAZERS 2199
A reboot of sorts to the original Yamato movie series with elements of the assorted sequels, spin-off and reimagining that came out in the intervening 40 years sprinkled in for good measure, but very much its own beast with its own story to tell.
Like my recent run of Gundam marathons, I had intended to pace myself at two episodes a day as a 2nd daily workout tonic. Ended up binging the whole twenty-five episode run in three days.
If you've found yourself with a space opera sized whole in your heart of late and need something to plug the gap, I'm not sure I can recommend it highly enough.

Last post by don wiskerando - Today at 04:49:23 PMJust listened to the ThrillCast podcast which is an interview with Mike Carroll. If anyone else has listened to the bit about Proteus Vex, did we already know this news? I'll spoiler it but it's not about plot details [spoiler]This[/spoiler]

Well I enjoyed the first half of the book, the Karyn stories seemed written a bit chaotically though I did like the Hotdog run story as well. ...That Hotdog Run story reads really well collected - it didn't click at the time (The gap between Meg issues doesn't help). I didn't realise Corann and Lesley are the twins from the classic Grant / Ransom era 'Triad' story that I read when I subscribed to the prog so long ago. Top callbacking. The book is a decent collection all round. Nice to see some strip art from Roach and Robinson.

Last post by M.I.K. - Today at 02:27:25 PMAlready being familiar with the Gorbals Vampire and having that at the forefront of my mind, I totally missed any Stephen King references.

Last post by Jim_Campbell - Today at 11:44:02 AMQuote from: The Doctor Alt 8 on Today at 10:57:38 AMI have finally got Aviva life to admit that they DO have a policy in my mothers name. But I have no idea how to get printed copies of my bank statements from my internet only bank.
You'll need to contact their customer service and request them, covering whatever date range you've been asked for — explain that you need hard copies printed by them (not by you, because they'll suggest that) to meet legal requirements.
If they're any good, they'll do it for free, but they may well charge you. If they want more than a quid per statement, argue with them. (After all, you've been saving them money all the time you haven't had paper statements.)

Last post by Hoagy - Today at 11:05:30 AMOoh that's very good. I like the almost geometric sculpting of muscle work. And it's far from shameful to use reference for things your mind absolutely refuses to untangle. Yep, shades and tones are inspiring Nightbook. Lovely bit of art.

Last post by The Doctor Alt 8 - Today at 10:57:38 AMI can't find a new place to live. I don't have enough money coming in to afford a decent rent and no where will allow a pet. I'm going to have live with Henry.

Adrian has been officially diagnosed as having Parkinson's +. He has only 5 to 10 years left to live..... and half of that won't be worth living. He is spending most of his days currently running around in meetings trying to sort out legal things... He is giving instructions not to be revived. I fully support his choice.
