1995. A teenaged Martin Leggett excitedly anticipated the film version of Judge Dredd. Since I was a nipper my dad had ensured that the greatness of the anthology comic 2000 AD was a part of my life. I partook of Ace Trucking Company, Strontium Dog, Rogue Trooper, Nemesis the Warlock …
Once upon a time, the Pope sent a string of rosaries to the Queen of England. 400 years later, we have a word we can use to refer to just about anyone. If you’ve ever gone to a Renaissance Faire, I’m sure you have a pretty clear picture of what …

If you’re anything like me, you love a good murder mystery. Well, I suppose you don’t have to truly be anything like me, but it stands that murder mysteries are interesting, and have the tendency to suck the viewer, or reader, right in. Why do you think there are so …
George R. R. Martin’s epic fantasy series is the current “it” literature for geeks of all stripes. … (Editors note: this is being posted on behalf of Steve) I have a confession: I have a difficult time getting into fantasy series and I have a habit of picking up the first book only …
I recently had the pleasure of reading 215 Ink’s “Brian and Bobbi”. It is written by Adam Wilson and the art is by Franco Viglino. I like it when an author doesn’t feel the need to baby me into understanding the world where his/her story takes place. In just …
