Just backed the Kickstarter for the new Dan Dare by Alex De Campi & Marc Laming, coming from B7Media (who also do the DD audio stories)
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/798979572/dan-dare-graphic-novelLove DD, eager to see their take on this classic Brit #comics character. Last one to get the spirit of it was the Garth Ennis & Gary Erskine take, which was modern but true to the original spirit.

"You cannot kill what doessss not live..."
#LunchtimeReading : revisiting an old superfiend, with the 2000AD Judge Death Mega Special, with cover artwork (of course!) by the mighty Brian Bolland, nicely timed for the spooky season.
And yes, I have been reading this comic so long I remember Bolland drawing his anti-life character way back in his original appearance!

Day off, chilling, spinning some #vinyl , planning my film festival screenings, and a good 2000 AD catch-up. Rob Williams writing Dredd, with R M Guera on Art Droid duties. Zarjaz.

Day off, enjoying leisurely lunch, vast pot of JDFC (Joe's Damned Fine Coffee), spiced liberally with Thrill Power as I have my 2000 AD & Megazine catch-up read. (cover art from Judge Dredd Megazine #479 by Toby Willsmer)

#LunchtimeReading : enjoying a 2000 AD catch-up, and advance peek at this week's Prog 2421, which also marks a remarkable 48 years since The Galaxy's Greatest Comic launched.
And yes, I've been reading it right from the very start. Young me back then would blow his little mind if he knew when he grew up he'd get to chair some of those creators in talks, much less go have a pint with them afterwards

Late lunch on a day off, enjoying a multi-prog 2000 AD catch up reading session. Sneak peek at upcoming Prog 2410 has me giggling as Mike Owen Carroll & Ben Willsher sneak multiple references into a pile of old droids in a scrapyard in the Dredd strip.
So far I've spotted the Giant Robot from Who, Metal Mickey(!), Tweeky, Lost in Space robot, Hoagy, a Cyberman & VINCENT

Starlord #1 (May 13, 1978)
Starlord was a sci-fi comic book published by IPC as a deluxe version of the 2000 AD magazine. It featured longer stories, better-quality paper, and more color pages. Costing more than the 2000 AD magazine, the project proved too ambitious and lasted only 22 issues and 4 specials. Later it merged with 2000 AD and was renamed 2000 AD and Starlord.

Great to see the BBC site do a decent article on the Bryan Talbot https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wear-68712698
Such an astonishing & diverse body of work. Chairing Bryan & Mary at the Edinburgh Book Fest was a delight (we could have talked so much longer!)

#LunchtimeReading : topping up my Thrill Power with a 2000 AD catch up. Loving R M Guera's art on Rob Williams's new Dredd strip. Uniform and helmet design reminding me of very early Dredd by the mighty & much-missed Carlos Ezquerra

Well this is sad news. Artist, writer and editor Paul Neary has passed away. I don’t think it can be understated how actively involved Neary was with shaping the careers of many people involved in British comics. Editor-in-Chief at Marvel UK during the expansion of the early 90s, and an artist in his own right. A definite loss.

In the early 1980s there were two major takes on the #CaptainMarvel archetype in British #comics. One was a massive commercial success and has consistently been in print since then. The other wasn’t.

Yay, home to find my new Neil Slorance comic I backed on Kickstarter has arrived!
I'm in a peculiar place right now with everything going on, but this makes me smile, I've loved Neil's work for years & shouted them out often on the old Forbidden Planet blog (sadly gone into digital oblivion).

“Long-time readers of comics will be given a nostalgic look at some of their favourites (…) while more recent fans will gain an insight into how the medium has developed over the years (…) The narratives of the early comics changed (with) Charley’s War, set in the first world war, and its unflinching gaze not on glory, but the horror of conflict.” #Comics #BritishComics #WarComics #PatMills #JoeColquhoun #CharleysWar #Battle #Commando #Hotspur #IPC #Rebellion https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/sep/16/british-war-comic-art-rescued-exhibition

#LunchtimeReading - @2000ad & Dredd Megazine catch-up. Loving the way Conor Boyle is riffing on Ezquera's original 1970s Dredd visuals for the early-set Mega City 2099 he & Kenneth Niemand are doing. Lovely touch, especially for long-time readers.

Still feeling sore (random "you're getting older pains), so instead of photo walk, giving myself lazy day in, reading.
Advance peek at next week's @2000ad for some Thrill Power Therapy, delighted to see two of my chums in all-ages Prog 2336, with Rob Davis on cover droid duties, & Neill (Mega Robo Bros) Cameron teaming up with Liam Johnson for a Cadet Dredd tale. Zarjaz!!

For any fellow #LutherArkwright fans heads up #BigFinish have made #audio versions of the first two #graphicNovels. Both starring #DavidTennant. The first one, The Adventures of Luther Arkwright, came out in 2005 and I thought it was superb. Sold out now on CD but still available for £4.99 download. An audio version of the sequel Heart of Empire is coming out later this year.
