This week...

It's the death of Sentinel Prime (not really!) Plus the deaths of Hound (not really) and Trailbreaker as Starscream gets all the best bits in my look at Megatron Origin Issue 4!

Which is, if nothing else, going to really annoy Megatron.

This week, it's the first ever depiction of the first time Megatron and Starscream met.

It's so homoerotic that Soundwave starts rubbing himself.

All this and the secret of cassettes as I look at Megatron: Origin Issue 3!

This week, well it's been a hell of a week where you nearly didn't get Revistation because of internet issues.

But I'm having a better time than everyone's second favourite Gobot (Tux is the best, clearly) as I look at Megatron: Origin issue 2!

This week, we dive into the past of the Decepticon who says "Heh", with a new writer and a returning artist who's here to stay in a story where the continuity is elastic.

All this and Sentinel Prime in my look at Megatron Origin Issue 1!

A Ko-Fi blog request by Stuart Denyer. If you’d like me to write about something, one donation gets you a blog of your choosing.


Sherlock Holmes is of course one of the greatest fictional heroes of all time, up there with Dracula in terms of being both one of the most adapted characters of all time and ruined by Steven Moffat.

There have been so many variations over the years, from fighting World War II to fighting Matt Frewer’s accent, he has covered ever period and trend from his original Victorian era England to the 21st century.

Mr Denyer was kind enough to ask me what my five favourite adaptations of Holmes are, which I’ve cheated a bit to stop it being my five favourite Brett adaptations. It’s also basically a very personal list, so there’s going to be at least two things here that will make serious fans roll their eyes, for which I offer no apologies.
