Bring on the Marvel hype! House of M (or, House of Hmmmmmmm) comes to a hopefully satisfying conclusion or it really will be a waste of time and hype, and the internet won't so much crack in half as fall asleep. Should Bendis be allowed to write huge crossovers in…
I always feel I should be into more Image comics, now that they have a much more expansive and higher quality range than when it first came out, but I don’t know if I can get over my stupid prejudices. I feel guilty when something I had been interested in…
Some people might think that it is strange that I am posting a review of a comedy programme the day after the second London attack. That is their right. For me, I was born, bred and live in London, and these cowardly attacks on this wonderful city anger me beyond…
I didn’t go to San Diego, but I always get a laugh out of the photos that come out of there every year (especially the ones sent to Warren Ellis) but this picture is THE greatest image ever, and is my Something Borrowed. For Something New, my selection of comics…

My brain seems to have recovered since yesterday, although not enough last night to actually be able to read my comics haul, so reviews will come later. But my brain is overcompensating by floating all around the place, so this post will digress. You have been warned. I watched Teen…
Let us look into the future ... (or here, if you don't have the sight) So, House of M begins. Is anybody particularly excited about this? Spinning out of Avengers: Disappointed, the New Avengers and the Astonishing X-Men team up to give Scarlet Witch a spanking or something. (Don't you…
Even after a great weekend, I feel like crap, so I could be coming down with something. Nevertheless, my urge to blog is overwhelming. Let's see what we can do ... There was a lot of news from Wizard LA over at comic news websites, much of which didn't signify…
