Aren't you getting that confused with the patronymic?

Yes, I believe I am!

Cheers

Good Meg!

Lead Dredd was a nice one off IMO. I think criticizing the inconsistancy with the Wagner scripted township issues is missing a trick; Wagner only shows the TOD important events, not the usual Judge stuff. Well, that works for me!

Lily's charmed me already and I'm looking forward to this developing.

TFTBM I wasn't that fussed on, although it reminded me how much I loved the City of the Damned arc when I read it as a youngling.

Johnny Woo - I was disappointed this was only a two parter! It felt like it was just warming up!

Also nice to see Siku hasn't taken a huff over the criticism he recieved...

OTOH, if you want to see more Inspectre, write to Tharg and tell him to retcon the whole thing out of continuity. :-)

Cheers!

You've stuck your toe in the piranha tank now John! 

But yes, some Indigo Prime, the continuation of Waugh, and more freako weirdo one-offs like Cradlegrave, soon as you can please!

As a matter of fact I'm writing "Indigo Prime" right now!  It's a bit of a bitch but we're getting there...  Before "Ship of Fools" there's a one-off Devlin story - told in song in the style of Noel Coward - called "Exquisite Corpses" that I'm still struggling to finish... then the new "Strange & Darke" series... so I'm supposed to be busy.  I just wish this bloody weather wasn't so nice!

Fuck, man - you're even slower than me! 

I should probably point out that I haven't been working on this for the last fourteen years. My thoughts have only recently turned to the idea of a new series and, having got the nod from Kev, I'd started turning over plot ideas to the point where I really should have started writing them up. That said, I think Gordon would still have got there first, so -- frustrating though it is -- I would have been more annoyed if I'd fully plotted the damn thing and written up a synopsis!

And, no -- there's no salvaging it.

Cheers

Jim

What about your werewolves on the moon story?  Man, that's a killer idea!  If you can't be arsed working up a whole new pitch and world and stuff, couldn't you do it as a Dredd (or Dredd-world) story on Luna-1?  I'd pay good money to read that!  (Erm, well, I would if I didn't get complimentary progs!)

True, but - ugh! - the guy's a Christian!  And what was that he said about Dredd being like Jesus?  I was in hysterics when I read that bit!  (Although he was very nice about me, I suppose, so I shouldn't really moan...)

[Proudhuff]

a one-off Devlin story - told in song in the style of Noel Coward - called "Exquisite Corpses"



How dreadfully, dreadfully droll!

[Hoagy]

Yeah, I didn't really agree with the "You know, Dredd's a bit like Jesus," bit. Uncalled for. Well its his opinion I guess. Not one that comes across well in text form.

Did not understand the Tales from the black museums continuity.

Liked the fact that Johnny woo was a two parter. It should come at us like Damnation Station. For a while at least. Punchy tales to smack us back into it. Then maybe roll out a 6-10 parter.

Doherty does great Cursed Earth Dredd.

Lilly. She is brill. Love this series.

Are they trying out comic reviews or is this a one off while the movie reviewer's on his hols?

And we are ion for a treat in the coming summer months with expanded megs. Yeyhar!

[Rio De Fideldo]

Thanks for responding John. Some interesting news.

Weather control!  Blizzards and eclipses over the Smith droid's house!

I'm sure you can forgive him (see what I did there?).

As for Dredd being like Jesus, it could be the JD/JC thing - they're only a letter away and perhaps he was confused.

Or it's the famous "The meek will inherit a daysticking and 5 years for passivity" verse in the Bible. JC was also heard to remark "SANDAL KNIFE!" when in a tight situation.

He also carried a gun with six settings; Standard Crucifiction, Roman Armour Piercing, Fiery Pit of Death, Bounce back (from the dead) and Meek seeker. Little known fact that.

Indigo prime?!? INDIGO PRIME?!?

....thrill power overdose!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I better get off my arse and do that feature on killing time for my blog that i've planned to do for ages....

(and some more prog slogs wouldn't hurt either I guess...)

[Spaceghost]

Also, at the risk of complaining about the same issue twice in the same thread like a big mentalist, in what way is Siku's 'Manga Jesus' manga? Again, I like his style but it certainly couldn't be described as manga, not in my book.

The word 'manga' just seems to be thrown onto anything these days just to make it appeal to young 'uns.

[The Monarch]

I'm one of those purists that believe that if it isn't from japan it isn't manga at all....

but thats probably just me
