One year on (and a couple of months) from our much-celebrated Bristol Comic Expo Interview with the superstar team of Kieron “Warhammer” Gillen and Jamie “Negative Burn” McKelvie, Seb and I, accompanied by our Comics Daily partner in crime Julian, interviewed Paul Cornell, top Doctor Who TV scribe (and writer of Captain Britain, the actual best Marvel comic being released at the moment) My contribution to the interview, if you haven’t guessed, was mostly the comics stuff. Should interest nerds and norms alike.

July 25th, 2008One to Watch, 4Talent Magazine
June 6th, 2008A comp copy of the rather chunky 4Talent Magazine Issue #9 hit my doormat today, containing a piece I wrote based on an interview with Mat Heywood and Lihee Avidian of MonkeyWitch, conducted in the windy, cold outdoor area of a Spanish Cafe somewhere in Ladbroke Grove in the middle of February. The piece is part of the “one to watch” feature spotlighting new and upcoming creative types.
4Talent magazine is fairly hard to find on the shelves, but I believe it’ll be available in Borders and is well worth the £5 it’ll cost you for a copy (and would be even if I wasn’t in it!) You can also buy it at the 4Talent Magazine website for £2.50 postage on top, but then it is less effort that way.

Bristol International Comics Expo 2008
May 13th, 2008As mentioned, I spent the weekend in Bristol at the Comics Expo. Since I was going anyway, I did a con report for CBR which largely focuses on Saturday’s panels and the Eagle Awards, because I spent Sunday recovering and tracking down comics.
Alternate Cover: Screenwriters in Comics
May 13th, 2008Ever fancy reading a tiredness-fuelled rant about how the comics industry lets people from the movies walk all over them out of some bizarre self-loathing? Of course you do! Here it is.
