Cant see the trailer in work but will probably hate it and then drunkenly watch the entire film in about a year and quite enjoy it. Just like every other one of these turds 

Yeah I still buy this and would say that with the Whisperer War and the always delightful Negan its stepped back up a gear.

On a side note, do we know if Alan Grant has retired or just stepped back from Anderson. I don't remember seeing anything at all from him for a while?

He has an Anderson coming up in prog 2000.

Anyhoo this was a great prog behind a great cover this week. Dredd and ST are my picks of the bunch.

What was wrong with the already existing No Mans Sky thread ?

[Forbidden Island]

Family has been down south the last week and I've just heard they were in a shop (Orcs Nest) in London and have bought a few games.

Coincidently Forbidden Island is what my youngest has bought so looking forward to that.

Oldest bought X-Com which sounds interesting and the Mrs got Star Trek Catan which looks awesome fun.

[Mr Robot]

Just watched the latest ep of Mr Robot last night - that was one dark episode. It was great!

All in my work drawers...

A tiny Lego Slave-1

Toothpaste

Pack of Xmas cards I've had for about 5 years now

and best of all...

2 postcards which say "Greetings from Castlemilk", which is the rough area of Glasgow where I grew up in the 80's (a joke gift from a colleague)

There once was a VARK who loved VARK,
Who would VARK every chance he could VARK,
VARK over the VARK,
VARK under the VARK,
VARK VARK VARK VARK VARK VARK VARK!

Thought the last ep was great. Actual lolled about 4 times and it felt a lot more like the comics in tone than previous episodes. I read that they consider this as a prequel to the main event and in that respect it worked out well as not every viewer is familiar with the characters.

Looking forward to seeing Herr Starr in action in season 2.

[Lords of Waterdeep]

Hmm looks a bit similar to Space Hulk for my money but then again DOOM!

Oh and I won at Lords of Waterdeep last night just pipping my eldest at the end by one victory point. Not just because I won I now declare this game as fantastic.

[Lords of Waterdeep]

The Mrs had her eye on Lords of Waterdeep for a good while now so I surprised her with it at pay day, I'm nice like that.

Set in the D&D realm you are all Lords vying for power and control of the city by buying buildings and sending folk off to complete quests, all while trying to ruin the other Lords plans.

TBH I dont think we referred to the adventurers with their correct names once as they are represented by colour cubes. So instead of "I need 3 clerics and a wizard" you say I need "3 purple and a white".

Despite that the game is very good and easy to pick up despite having lots and lots of pieces in the box. So good in fact I may suggest we play again tonight.

If he gets cubed and no-one writes another PJ story then it would be his last 

There are plenty of (minor) characters in Dredd history get sent to the cubes and you never see them again. I'd just rather him not get killed as he is by far and away my favourite Dredd side character.

Dredd, Brink and Scarlet Traces are all rocking my world.

I love a good PJ story so if this is gonna be his last I hope he gets cubed (again) and not killed.

Not sure if I want this or not but preordered anyway. And as if this isnt retro enough todays rumours are that the NX uses cartidges.

Yeah I really enjoyed this weeks and agree it stumbled last week. Liked the looping part as well hammering home where he was and what was happening. I hope to see 40% of the series budget on screen next week.
