A little loose ten minute battleaxe drawing, from the imagination but unintended, it’s almost identical to my paternal grandmother who was an absolute gin gimlet of camp, costume jewellery & spiky, snippy snobberies who lived in a sort of Soane’s museum of Crying Boys, china kittens & flamenco dolls

Woah! Just in case you missed the news.

Tonight 9:45 pm on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social. 'Night Of The Demon' an all time classic.

Can also recommend catching the recent episode of @johnnyrestall.bsky.social's excellent podcast on the topic after watching it too.

Marvellous 🙏x

So that was Monday Nov 17th 2025. Crikey. Another day done, another day (more or less) here. So it goes.

(Out this month in 1953, just 72 years ago, Journey Into Mystery #14, with its horrortastic cover by Gene Colan & Stan Goldberg.)

And so to bed. Sleep well, gentle sentients of Planet Earth.

The Black Rider

With arch campness and a decidedly Brechtian flair, Waits delivers a brilliant cabaret performance on this title track, quite unlike anything he’d done before. Yet despite all this it unmistakably, irresistibly Waits.

Love this, it’s like a dub version of Last of the Summer Wine (in a good way).

16 Shells from a 30.6

Sparse and tight as a clothesline, with buckshot-ricochet percussion and a growled falsetto vocal that could whittle a man into kindling. A battlecry of a song.

Matheson turns melancholy to mirth for Cormans lovably lunatic tale of warring wizards. Hardly Poe but lots of fun and the cast are a scream. 1963.
