The situation was evolving even as I travelled, and I was already implementing vigorous hand washing by the time I arrived.
Our gallant crew of editors Marie O’Regan and Paul Kane, as well as writers James Brogden, Catriona Ward, Jen Williams and I -

Support from arts organisations for projects like this truly matters. A sincere buíochas to GCC Arts Officer Sharon O’Grady and the adjudicating panel for choosing my project from a competitive field.
I conceived the story some years ago with Greg Day. I wrote the treatment -
Blog postNow that the news is out on Previewsworld I can announce that I’ve written a story featuring the paranormal investigator Cursitor Doom, who originally appeared in IPC’s Smash! in 1969-70, first written by Scott Goodall and and drawn by Eric Bradbury.
My story, drawn by artist Andreas Butzbach, will appear in a new Smash! special, which will be published by Rebellion on 10 June 2020.

We seek to create an environment in which artists can make work of ambition and quality, and be remunerated appropriately.

Blog postI’m delighted that I’ve been invited back to be a guest at Enniskillen Comic Fest (1-2 May 2020), since I always enjoy a warm welcome at events in Northern Ireland. Organiser Paul Trimble and his dedicated staff at Enniskillen Comic Fest put on a wonderful show, usually themed around comics created from or influenced by 2000 AD.
This year they are celebrating a special anniversary in the British comics firmament.
2020 sees the 45th anniversary of Battle Picture Weekly, the har -

Blog postHere’s part two of the Bergcast podcast discussing Quatermass and the Pit, the BBC TV mini-series, which was originally broadcast during December 1958 and January 1959. Here’s a link to part one.
Thanks again to Jon Dear and Howard David Ingham for inviting me to be part of their in-depth examination of Nigel Kneale’s Quatermass series.
I’ve previously discussed the Quatermass Xperiment on the Hammered Podcast, so it was wonderful to revisit Kneale’s excellent work. -
