Well I'm having one of those melancholy days. Just one of those cases where something feels...off inside.
I'll keep myself busy and hopefully it'll go away, I could really do without spiralling again.

Besides the fact but I hope folks who've been having a rough patch lately are doing well.

Some photos from the recent 'Into Battle - the art of British war comics' exhibition. Let's start with some Keith Burns art shall we?

Early 80's Marvel does seem to be its hey-day.  By the late 80's they seem to have crawled up their own backsides before completely losing the plot in the speculator boom of the 90's. (trillion's of covers, holograms, card covers, die cut covers, cover covers ...)

I've not read much seventies or eighties Marvel as I was an annoying DC kid as a teenager (though I did always have a soft spot for Byrne's She-Hulk run and Groo), and I definitely plan to check out some of the recommended comics from this era, and Power Pack will be on that list. But I have recently read a good few series from Marvel from the 2010s and I think some of it is superb, I absolutely loved Unbeatable Squirrel Girl and Jason Aaron's Thor run when Jane Foster is the central character, plus am very fond of Matt Fraction's Hawkeye and Fantastic Faux series, Charles Soule's She Hulk issues and am making my way through the and enjoying first Spider-Gwen omnibus currently, so I definitely wouldn't write the company off completely.

I'm not sure where you guys are getting your figures from - I'm pretty sure that a quick eye check up is only in the region of twenty or thirty quid.

My gut feeling is you'd be talking about $250M for a full season.

Come on, chaps!
Show a little twothy spirit!
A quick whip-round and we'll have that jolly old quarter billion in no time!

(A cake sale, maybe?)

And that's before we even get to the idea of the "hero" being a mega-mass-murdering fascist. 

Even though I do want to see this project come to fruition, part of me is relieved that Dredd isn't as popular as, say, Captain America with the wider public.

Is there something wrong with us for being Dredd fans...?
