Addendum 12: Five Faced Fiends.

28/3/2015

7 Comments

 
PictureNothing to do with the piece, just a picture I like.
So here I am, back from holiday refreshed and invigorated.

Well, I assume so, I'm actually writing this before I go so I can just click "Publish" on Saturday with no messing about. Who knows, maybe it was a terrible holiday. Maybe I've died horribly. Who can say?

Still, let us not dwell on possible negative futures, let's just assume I had a nice time drinking with long time reader Death's Head (yes, I appreciate you all so much I will let you buy me one drink each if you can find me) and watching The Woman in Black (the play, not an actual woman in black).

For today, enjoy my thoughts on Five Faces of Darkness!


Back to normal this coming Friday for the end of Legacy.

Transformation 150: Secret Origin.

It's the single most important issue of Transformers Simon Furman ever wrote, creating the entire origin of the species that has gone on to be the definitive take on their creation.

All that plus a bad ass Wreck-Gar and a sad Smokescreen as well.

All in my look at The Legacy of Unicron! Part 5

As I reach this milestone, I thank you all for reading once again. Bless you all, every one.

Remember, no entry on Friday, but there will be a treat on Saturday.

This week, Inferno reaches burn out, Smokescreen is the source of a terrible pun and Unicron is all about the Death's Head.

Another Friday the 13th brings bad news with the second death of one of my heroes in a fortnight. Despite being hit badly by this, the show goes on as I look at the single biggest fight the British comic ever did, in:

The Legacy of Unicron! Part 3.

Addendum 11: The James Roberts Interview.

7/3/2015

Yes, after weeks of talking about it, probably seeming like a crazy man, it's time for what stands a good chance of being the highlight of my year, the James Roberts and Lloyd Young interviews on IDW's Classics UK books!

These can be read HERE.

Just for fun, I've also made a short video pimping the feature that can be seen below. I've no idea why the onscreen captions aren't working, but I've left it as is because it's funnier to see me being so inept.

Thanks again to James and Lloyd, splendid chaps, both of them.

Legacy of Unicron is a story with so many memorable moments, it's hard for one to stand out above all others, but this week's issue contains the one that will have haunted the dreams of every single reader for a very long time.

It's Shockwave Vs. Death's Head to the death, in my look at issue 147!

Come back tomorrow for the interview with James Roberts, it's going to be a big'un.

Doctor Who: The Eccles Cake Weeks.

1/3/2015

My latest video sees me deal with YouTube's suggestions of how I could improve my videos in a mature and sensible way, whilst talking about the Doctor who brought the series back but is remembered more for the behind the scenes controversy more than anything else.

It's a rambly one, even by my standards.
