The Judge Dredd: Mega Collection is coming up on a week old. It’s a fortnightly series, releasing two hardback collections of classic Judge Dredd stories a month. Each issue is £9.99, which is about 30% less than you’d pay for the vast majority of hardback books and graphic novels. The first issue is £1,99 and …
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-BVs-KCSiA] The trailer for the new, rebooted version of Fantastic Four was released yesterday. That’s it up there. The production’s been a whipping boy for the geek press for months with persistent rumors it was in massive trouble. Even now, it’s going back for reshoots that are either exactly the sort of pickup material …
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7Zkun0tJc4] We have a system with Bioware Games. Marguerite plays them, I provide regular backseat support/audience and where needed an extra ideological viewpoint. It worked like a charm for the Mass Effect playthrough she did in 2012 and it’s been going well for the excellent Dragon Age: Inquisition. One of the things I’ve really …

The Beagle 2 Mars lander deployed on Christmas Day 2003. The hope was that the small ship would make it through the atmosphere, land and unfurl an array of sensors to being studying our nearest planetary neighbour. The project’s principle investigator was British scientist Colin Pillinger who threw himself headlong at both the science and …
I staggeringly failed to get these up on time before Christmas so I’ll put them up regularly now until we’re caught up. These are regular conversations my friend Vic Linde and I have about Criminal Minds, the world’s most impressively nasty FBI Profiler show. I’m in plain text, Vic’s in italics. Enjoy. But maybe don’t …
Picture a blog going on a journey beyond sight and sound. It’s left the comfy, sort of like Blake’s 7 like pseudo utopia of Milton Keynes and fallen, back down the time stream, to Waterloo Promenade in Nottingham. It may have passed a monster along the way and, for some reasons, William Shatner shouting at …
Atomic Robo is my favorite comic. You can probably see why.
I’m a stuff junkie. I love kit, the stuff you use to get the job done, whatever the job is. As a result I look at posts like this the same way I tend to look at a new cookbook; enthusiastically and making notes as I go on one of the numerous notebooks in the …
When I was 12 I wrote to NASA. This was pre-email and pre-commercial internet. So, when I say wrote, I mean it; paper, stamps, return address. I decided I wanted to learn more about space because, if I didn’t know enough, I might not be able to become an astronaut. Nothing happened for three …
