Blogging will be a little light for a while as I’m writing my essay for the Mindless Ones, editing PEP! and writing about 15,000 words for that, and proofreading a book for my uncle. That said, I’m going to do a pop-drama and a Beatles review in the next couple of days…

Your hairy English bottom Bryan Talbot’s Grandville is a huge stylistic change from Talbot’s other recent work. While his most recent work, 2007’s Alice In Sunderland (which would have to be on a shortlist for best graphic novel of the decade) was a deeply personal ...

With a couple of days to go til the deadline for writers, the articles for my new magazine PEP! (Politics, Entertainment and Pthings) have started coming in, so I thought I’d give you a rundown of what I know for certain will be in there.
I’ll be writing linktext throughout, and ...

This is actually the stereo cover. Couldn't find a scan of the mono one anywhere. I’ve never been able to understand why Help! is critically regarded as one of the Beatles’ weaker efforts. Yes, it’s a slightly hazy album, due to it being the first since the Beatles ...

Apologies for the lack of new contend. I do have a few posts planned for the next few days: HELP! tomorrow, James Bond on Saturday, a review of Bryan Talbot’s new graphic novel Grandville on Sunday, but I’ve been quite tired for the last few days and also planning stuff for PEP! ...

Just a few quick links today…
Justin Zyduck has posted a Doctor Who revamp idea in response to mine.
Jennie asks Do You Know A Rapist? while Roz Kaveney wants feminists to speak out against the murder of transpeople . I wish neither post was necessary…

I’ve been away a few days, and the responses to the Doctor Who post have brought up some very interesting points, so I thought I’d go through those I’ve not yet responded to as a separate post (there are some I’ve still not responded to even after this. And I owe a ...

Doctor Who
I’ve got a lot on at the moment (got a piece of coursework to complete and also going to Thought Bubble tomorrow) so I don’t have time yet to reply to my backlog of email, or to the increasingly interesting comments for the last post (I will do, especially Zom’s ones…). ...

A Trout In The Milk
found this 13 days agofound this
This will not be a regular thing on this blog, but I’d like to ask a favour.
Last month, my wife lost her job. We believed she’d been getting paid in arrears, but apparently she was getting paid in advance, so we suddenly have £800 less for this month than we believed we would.

Well, I’m just about well enough to type one of these, after a few days of essentially staring blankly into space (went back to work today, though I probably should have had another day or so off). Proper post tomorrow, I hope:
(BTW for anyone going to the Thought Bubble comic ...

I’ve been sent home sick from work today, and am too incoherent to do anything other than listen to old episodes of Old Harry’s Game. I’m not ignoring your emails, and you’ll get a reply soonish…

I’m starting my look at how to ‘rejuvenate’
various pop-culture/genre characters with Tarzan, because his is the...
most obvious, and I’d be very astonished if someone hadn’t done this already. The thing about Tarzan is, ...

Pop-Drama 1 : The Jungle VIP
Pillock has finally finished his look at Star Wars and his own personal ‘canon’ . Essential reading for anyone who liked my Hyperpost series.
Dave Sim has switched to doing his comics POD – apparently Cerebus Archive was dropped by Diamond. Very sad – it’ll only ...

fewer and fewer posts about comics. There’s a reason for that. I’ve been reading as many comics as ever for the last few months, but ...

The Pop-Drama Manifesto – A Call To Arms
Remembrance Sunday and the eleventh of November are days that evoke conflicting emotions in me. I’m pretty much an absolute pacifist, so you’d expect me to disapprove of them, but at the same time the *reason* I’m a pacifist is because I don’t like seeing people go and ...

Did you miss me (yeah!) while I was away? Did you hang my picture on my wall?
No? Suit yourselves then.
Anyway, after a week of late nights at work, concern over hospitalised family members and friends, Doctor Who conventions, seeing off emigrating friends and general STUFF, I’m now ...

I’ll probably not post much til Monday – I’ve got a big thing to finish off at work, a piece of coursework due in on Sunday for my Master’s course, there’s a Doctor Who convention on Saturday and I’m visiting my sick brother on Sunday.
However, I do have ...
