I am rubber, you are glue!

All the Lucasarts adventures were great and I'm glad to see that most of them have been re-released in modern formats, but it's a shame that the Indiana Jones games haven't been remastered.

Cam Kennedy's tribute to Jim Baikie on the letters page is very touching.

I saw this thoroughly heartbreaking story on Twitter. I'm sure many of us will have enjoyed his work on The Maxx and The Flash, and other books:

If you haven't read The Vision, then it's a bit of a bargain there.

I see Jeremy Corbyn may be coming round to the idea that making Labour a party of opposition, rather than protest, may be a successful strategy. Bit late, and a shame that he rebuffed the Greens and SNP when they suggested it to him last year. Anyway, hope the man shows at a bit of sense:

Dave Taylor's work is great here. I'd be very happy to see Tharg call on him more regularly.

I wonder what the Idirans will look like. I always struggled to picture them from Banks' description.

Comics International used to be stacked by the till at my local comic shop, and was an occasional impulse buy from me. I would have thought that would be a logical way to sell it? Of course I know absolutely nothing about the economics or practicalities of putting out a magazine, so there may be good reasons not to go down that road.

Sounds like an interesting magazine, but £8.50 an issue is rather steep.

If we're doing the Meg as well, then my vote is:
1- Lawless
2- Lawless
3- Lawless

HMs for Lawless, Lawless and Lawless (which sounds like a disreputable legal firm).

Ryan Adams' Taylor Swift covers album is a work of genius, even if you're not a fan of Ms Swift:
