Prog / Re: Prog 1571 - SHAK ATTACK!......

All is good - even the logo doesn't annoy me so much, partly I'm getting used to it, partly the colours they're using.
  It's a dismal prospect for s compulsive letter writer; "dear Tharg,  Dredd was great, Shakara is brilliant, Kingdom rocks, I love Stickleback and SD is pretty good, ps I loved the cover"

Books & Comics / Re: World War One. Giant Bats....

In more WWI/bat action, the Invaders back in the 70s had a story line in which a vampire bat/baron preyed on the Allies in WWI and, oddly enough, came back to WWII as a Nazi Vampire Bat. That story was okay but the art, by Frank Robbins was total rubbish

No yo're not wrong House of, fundamentalist christians are almost always protestants (I guess there are 'fundamentalist catholics such as Opus Dei and Mel Gibson, but they arent called fundamentalists are they?). Perhaps these people want to distinguish themselves from more liberal protestants, like Anglicans.
  Mardredd, what is this sinister 'church' in which women cover their cleavages?  More importantly, which ones make them uncover?

yours anglicanly,

girls, don't dress hotly near men with bent-up ties!

  How does he get the stuff about modesty from that particular verse?

How about Slaughterhouse Five? For mine, that's another, 'great book, great film' combination

usually the book, but not always. 'Casablanca' was based on a play - has anyone here read the play? If the play were better than the film, we would have heard about it by now.
  'Total Recall' was in many ways more interesting than the short story it was based on (which was very good).

...and the Bond movies are all far more fun than Fleming's petty, derivative and humorless books, for mine.

otherwise, book

This bear is far too chummy to be worth a comic, but it's a cute story

a lot of the original locals call it 'Invasion Day' - risking the wrath of Mills. For a long time it was only celebrated in NSW, it was too convicty for the other states. Our government always spends a fortune trying to persuade us that we should get really excited about it.

 hope you have a nice day off Radbacker

smoked kippers also rock (albeit in a very different way to Connie Huq and Kathleen de Leon)! I had them years ago in London, after years of reading references to breakfast kippers and so on. Well done, poms!
