"The UK has got windmills all over the place that are ruining the country, ruining the beautiful fields. A magician lives in them, and he solves locked room murders with the lady from Men Behaving Badly. He is a disgusting individual. Long curly hair, very unkempt, very very disrespectful."

That's a great book! The only letdown is the superhero stuff, which seems to have been chosen for its historical significance rather than its quality – but there are only a few stories that affects, and the rest of it is solid gold.

Ron Goulart wrote a series of "Groucho Marx, Detective" books which are rather fun.

I like this very much. It's going into the mental box along with "writing in pictures" for whenever I try to articulate whatever the hell it is we do.

I get that, I was paraphrasing something he said over the weekend.

The issue that is most astonishing is that a fascist like Nigel Farage is allowed to run a political party in UK elections. I am well aware many people will find this to be shattering news. Some will even find it difficult to believe. But I have checked this out legally and I am right.

So Buttons: Who’s My Daddy? An Auto-Bio Comic (Eisner-Nom!) A standalone issue of the Eisner-nominated auto-bio comic. A great place to jump in. One life, drawn by many artists.

Just backed this!

Sadly, I fall into both categories. So I have both the baldness and the luxurious hair, but mainly from my ears and nostrils.

Ohh yes. Learned that the hard way. Cloud and on-site backups for all my work.

Bloody hell. I’m still running Mojave on my Intel laptop, too many apps I use every day that won’t work if I upgrade (which I can’t afford to do anyway). Dreading the day the thing finally dies.
