Rok is one of the best comics i'm reading right now, hand down, and absolute classic of both sports and sci-fi comicdom.

Bradley, The Clown and Armoured Gideon have to be three of the most unfairly maligned 90's thrill's i've read.

Glancing at the "family" copy of the mail today i'm struck by how absolutely disgusting it's lowered itself once again. Victim blaming aimed at Jo Cox is utterly disgusting.

I would have thought if it is that close to you then it's too late to run.
I believe silent resignition is the best cause of action at that distance. And a new pair of pants.

I was at a con a few years back when apout of the corner of my eye, down a narrow corridor I spotted a guy in a Xnomorph cosplay. The tail was suspended by a thin but of wire to the back of the head and waved in unisen with the seemingly erratic movement. To say I jumped a mile is an understatement, I was fucking bricking myself, and I think that speaks for itself at just how genuinely affective th design is at scaring folk. It's almost primal.

Season 3 certainly up's the friction with the introduction of [spoiler]Grand Admiral Thrawn[/spoiler].

Wait, hold on, I'm as gay as a copy of Ru Paul on pride day, everyday, and I didn't pick up on Regan being gay.

Or are we talking about Bill Savage? I hear he's firing mostly blanks these days.

People seem to be developing an increased preference for people isolation without acknowledging the inherent dangers historically have been demonstrated through it.

'Slams head on table' JUST FUCKING SHOOT THE PREACHER ALREADY AND SHUT UP!!!

The incompetence Flesh willfully displays is frustrating as all heck. I love Uncle Pat, really I do, but this is just utterly fucking terrible on all accounts.

Counterfeit Girl, on the other hand, is delightfully, vibrant, smart, witty and concise. Love it, love it to death.

Hunted continues to be a blast, this Dredd tale is a real stonker, and Savage is...alright I guess.

Konga is a giant ape movie where a future Alfred Pennyworth utters the words "If I hadn't shot her, Pussy would have swollen uncontrollably" with a straight face.

Utter nonsense but good fun, in terms of cheap giant monkey movies this lacks the miniature work (though the houses of parliament get it) of Mighty Peking Man but is still a hell of an 80 mins. Make's a good double bill with Gorgo.

Prophet, though, Prophet really is utter genius and the best sci-fi comic i've read in years.

I will need to share a day with someone towards the end of the month if that's ok. We usually do that anyway.

More than happy to share my slot with you sir.

Aye, Eddie Campbell is one of those classic artists who could completely redesign any iconic character and make it work.
