Final BFI Southbank screening for publication of Magic Rays of Light is on Saturday afternoon at 15.00. The oddball programme pairs Elstree Calling, 1930, with the astonishingly eccentric and super-rare Television Follies, 1933.

Supercar is 65 years old today! I I wrote this piece last year within a few hours before its publication because we were scrambling to get other articles prepped for that week which - didn't end up happening. A hastily written but well-received retrospective!

St Mary's Church in Grimsby retains a remnant of art by Patrick Wymark's father Tom Cheeseman: the mural depicting every species of fish in the sea was restored and extended by Tom Cheeseman in 1933 to mark the golden jubilee of the church. The work took six months.

Sad to hear about Sal Buscema's passing. I read a lot of his comics growing up. The few times I've had to draw superheroes, I looked at his work to get a sense of the meat-and-potatoes of the genre. It's hard to say this without it sounding weird, but he had the best meat and the finest potatoes.

Sal Busema has died at the age of 89, a comic legend at least to me, he never got the strong critical acclaim of guys like Jack Kirby, but if your the right fan you know how good he was, and if nothing else, I'm going to miss the way he drew punches in comics.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.
