Cam Kennedy gave Nu-Earth a real (toxic) atmosphere.

Shatner sings, again, this time live and in video.  Has anyone got his new album?

In other news, Fry from Futurama just explored the Undercity (Sky One).

That's not on topic, Bou, that's on TopicS.  Count 'em.

?I almost had a sense that, unlike most American superhero books now written for a 20-something-and-up audience, Judge Dredd?s adventures target the thirteen-year-old audience we once had.?

What crock.  Of course, it might be a comment on the average mental age of 20 year old Americans compared to 13 year old Brits ;)

Or, on the other hand, a generalising judgement on the merit of over 1000 episodes of story based on the standard of a short, necessarily unrepresentative selection.  How many episodes is Judgement Day?  Well, they're all written by Ennis.  What proportion of the Dredd total is written by Ennis?  He'd have been better selecting a handful of episodes at random.

The best bit about that comment is one of the people lauded by the '20 year old audience' wrote the story being slated.

Oh, I don't know, I prefer black and white art.

It seems that Lego have lost their purpose recently.

I like that site, Shane.

I guess not.  Where's his site?

Have you done any strip work, Shane.




Comic strips.

That's a great site.  The video diaries are an amazing thing for a film still in production to be releasing.  Peter Jackson loves cinema.

And that, surely, should either be 'do' and 'doesn't', or 'did' and 'didn't', shouldn't it?

Yeah, but do you see how that last sentence didn't even make sense?

No, sorry, the nature/nurture thing wasn't a boast, just a dig at how the standard framing of discussions of genetics vs. social science.

Real job?  Are you joking?

Funnily enough they've been filming the new Dr Who around Cardiff Uni, where I'll be staying for the next three years or so.  At least that's the plan.

Masters one - Human genetics
Masters two - Social science

Is it nature or is it nurture?*  Doesn't matter to me, I'm in either way.

*this isn't a particularly sensible question to ask.

I think it might be time to plug it.  Coming soon, a 24-page collection of short stories, all illustrated by Dave Evans (Bolt-1).  Tales of the Contrary

Hey, I just 'modestly' suggested that as a title, a bit like the titles of all those pulp mags, you know...
