I'M BACK!




Been offline for a while, and have now moved to a new flat in Prenton (on the wirral). Finished my Joy Division graphic novel script and about to start on the artwork after taking a few reference photos in Manchester this week. I'm also writing a synopsis for a proposed graphic novel on King Arthur, and I'm eager to get stuck into some new Dr Who illustrations (particularly keen to have a crack at Matt Smith).


I finally saw an episode of the new Battlestar Galactica series this week, and it was pretty damn good. I never liked the old series, and the bland acting of Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict, but the gritty realism of the new show really appeals. I think the episode I saw was called 'You're A Long Way From Home' (I think!).


And I've just finished shooting my short horror film 'True Love'!


The Prisoner - I saw the 9 minute trailer for the new series with Ian McKellen. It looks fantastic. Just enough of the old show mixed with whole new elements. I just cannot believe how many of the old show's 'fans' are blasting the new version without having seen an episode yet.
