Nice Ripples

I've been reviewed! Read about my 'nice Kirby/Simonson/Senior ripples' at TRS2.

Thirty-One

My Birthday is fast approaching! I'll be in/around Naples on the day, but why not celebrate my return by buying me nice presents! Here are some things I'd like:

Daredevil Hardcover Volume 6
Top Ten: The 49er's
Scott McCloud's Making Comics
Flaming Lips: At War with the Mystics CD
Absolute Crisis on Infinite Earths
Absolute Watchmen
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Black Dossier
V for Vendetta DVD
Garth Merenghi's Darkplace DVD

Ninth Art

The excellent comics dissection website Ninth Art had its final update on Monday, after over 5 years of serving the Internet. The site will remain up, with an archive of all features.

Become a Comic Star

The winning bidder of this Ebay auction gets to have their name (or that of a loved one) used as the lead character in the upcoming Mark "Civil War" Millar / John "Eternals" Romita Jr comic. Should the comic be made into a film or computer game, even greater stardom is assured.

All proceeds go to research into Crohn's disease (Not to be confused with Clones disease).

New Captain Britain and Death's Head

Good news for collectors of British Marvel comics!

It looks like Panini Publishing is bringing out trade collections of the original Captain Britain strip (featuring the fist appearance of Psylocke, plus team ups with Captain America and Spider-Man). With any luck, a volume 2 will follow, which will hopefully include the magnificent John Stokes artwork on the Black Knight strip that reintroduced Captain Britain just before Alan Moore got his hands on the character.



Also, Death's Head gets a new collection!
