In the shops now, Elon Musk: American Oligarch. Highly recommended by Alan Moore. "An exceptional piece of work, right when we need it most."

Watching episodes of Department S, which I must have seen when originally aired, but can’t remember. A dept of Interpol investigate bizarre mysteries. Very much of its time, but still fascinating.

The UK comics scene is a vast grassroots industry. We make our own comics, we sell them, we largely own the means of production, and we have a community that fosters mutual support and mutual growth. I love us. We're great.
