Yep, it seems Liam Neeson has got the comedy bug.

The comic book artist Enric Badia Romero, known for drawing Modesty Blaise. I always remember seeing his Modesty Blaise in the London Evening Standard when comic strips were almost integral to Newspapers.

Michael Jayston is familiar to those who followed Only Fools And Horses but forever Peter Guillam in the BBC's Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.

Yes! Victory to Nordland! Any Live-Action would have busted the budget of even a large studio, so it is much wiser to go the animation route. The Unreal Engine looks realistic in its graphics, so this seems to be the right match for the subject matter.

It's a TV show that is very much of its time, so you could see it being problematic to younger audiences. A creepy, old guy gets women into danger every week and then invites himself around to dinner. They'll probably concentrate on Emma Peal as your POV character rather than Steed. They reinvented Sherlock Holmes for the 21st Century, but I can't help feeling that The Avengers has nothing more than nostalgia and curiosity going for it—two seasons at best.

Film & TV / Blood Meridian Movie
08 January, 2024, 08:31:20 AM
Yes, it seems Cormac McCarthy's much-praised novel is to be a film. I never read it, but I understand its brutal and gory depiction of bounty hunters scalping Native Americans for money, sport and sheer sadism. The brutal conquest of the American West, in other words.

A rotten indication of the coming year is the departure of the much admired John M Burns of Judge Dredd, The Order and various other publications. Another 2000AD Alumni treads the boards no more—condolences to his friends, family and work colleagues at 2000AD.

Film & TV / Ridley Scott's New Movie.

The worryingly titled 'Bomb' is the next movie from Ridley Scott—no hostage to fortune there.

It looks like the deal, whatever it is, has been done between Games Workshop and Amazon.

News / Re: Send your love to Ian Gibson
11 December, 2023, 08:00:37 PM
Awful news. Ian Gibson's distinctive style was unique on Judge Dredd, Halo Jones or Robo-Hunter—a damn shame. Another legend becomes immortal, so condolences to his family, work colleagues and all those at 2000AD/Rebellion.
