Things I'm Diggin' At The Moment

Justice Society of America - not to be confused with Justice League of America...two issues into this series and so far it's two for two. Good characterisation, good plot so far with portents of doom laden story lines to come, all mixed up with the Kingdom Come limited series. The artwork is nothing special except for the glorious Alex Ross covers.

The Beatles Love - saw the documentary over Christmas and was blown away by it. Cirque De Soleil pay a visit to Penny Lane. Some cassic Beatles tracks rejigged by the fifth Beatle himself George Martin and his sone Giles. Take a bow guys, you did good. And so did G. He went and bought tickets for us so we can go see it when we are in Vegas next month. Thats's my guy!

Memnoch The Devil - have read it twice before but am currently meandering through it again. I love this book. I love the way Anne Rice deconstructs Christianity and I think she is right, people haven't stopped believing in God, they just don't trust him anymore.

Sculpting A Galaxy - wow this book is cool. A behind the doors peak at the Industrial Light and Magic model shop, home to every Star Wars model ever built. I could look at this for hours, just enjoying the details that have gone into these models.

Dr Who figures - got a stack of these for Christmas from G - I love 'em. I like the detail and the sculpting is generally very good. Only taken the Cybermen out of the packet so far, but will open the rest. Good choice,thank you again.

BattleStar Galactica - 3rd season is just amazing. I get the analogy between the Cylon occupation of New Caprica and Iraq and the way the whole thing has been reversed. You clever monkeys! And the shot of the Galactica jumping into the atmosphere of New Caprica, falling earthward, launching it's Vipers and then jumping again before it hits the terrain is is pretty amazing.

'Sleb Big Brother -yes you read right. Poor old Ken. Leo was a prick. Jackie was just...something else.

Not forgetting the old faithfull's...

Torchwood
Dr Who (natch)
Heroes
The WonderStuff
