Got mine the other day and have been reading it ever since. There are a couple of strips in there that I haven't read before with several laugh out loud moments in it.
The final 24 pager is about a channel 4 documentary catching up with the family decades after, and the announcer has a Geordie twang - which is a fairly recent thing, isn't it?

I'd recommend this to anyone - bloddy love it!

That was one hell of a creepy finale to the series!

"Mischief!"

Congrats on getting another issue out Bolt.
Highlight for me was the Downlode Tale by Proudfoot & Colman. That could sit proudly within the pages of the Prog or Meg - top notch stuff.

I'm surprised they didn't ask for a photocopy of your wife as well.

Best League book in YEARS. Really enjoyed this one. I found the last one a bit ... empty, and wasn't keen on the Century trilogy but intend to go back and read those again now.

The Grand Budapest Hotel.
If you've ever seen a Wes Anderson film you know you are going to get quirky and this is no exception but it is absolutely hilarious.  I often find the funniest bits of his movies are in the trailers but there was plenty more in this than just those clips. An all star cast (some mounting to mere cameos) give it their all and go at such a lick that if you don't concentrate you miss some of the patter. Wonderfully old school effects for the chase scenes in the snow - like watching Michael Bentine's Potty Time! Some of the character deaths are a bit dark in comparison to the overall tone but overall it's wonderful - definitely worth a look-see.

Been to see The Book Thief. Bloody good film. I knew nowt about it going in so didn't know where this tale of a child growing up in a town in Germany in WWII was going to go. I'll tell you nothing more about it other than Death is the narrator (but don't go expecting a Terry Pratchett fantasy). Heartily recommended.

Glad you enjoyed it Bat King - thanks for the review  :)

You know I'm going to be quoting all those sound bites on twitter as I pimp it, right?   ;)



"Jikan is a Ronin, a dimension travelling Ronin, who fights Demons. Sort of Dr Who if Akira Kurosawa had made it"

R.I.P.D.
90 minutes of enjoyable hokum. Kind of Men in Black but with dead people. Worth a watch with a few beers on a Saturday night.

Great - The Leopard from Lime Street

Good call! What was that other one from the same era where the lad had a remote control toy army?
