I've talked about this in meetings. For all the 70s cop of show of it, Life on Mars WAS a sci-fi show. And one of the best and most effective moments was when they turned off the lights in a creepy way. I get British budgets are tighter but there's a way to do big ideas in small ways.

I hate that Who is seen as the only viable British terrestrial TV vehicle that can carry science fiction. They should use this lull to develop something new that doesn't come with the dead weight of historical baggage and toxic fandom.

Solving the "problems" currently plaguing Doctor Who will take time, the series' former showrunner Chris Chibnall has cautioned, explaining that the show's most pressing issue now is "primarily about money." https://bit.ly/3RUqeI6

I have such fond memories of this. I really hope we get a version of it in the MCU one day, where the film and cast really embrace flipping heroes and villains, elevating side characters, and just let folks play completely different versions of what's come before. Don't do the safe version.

#EventsDearBoy 4. AGE OF APOCALYPSE (1995, Marvel) Stuck in the diminishing returns of imitating Chris Claremont's labyrinthine subplotting without his flair, the 90s X-Office does the one thing he never tried: a story with a beginning, a middle and an end.

I am scripting my last current commissioned comic gig this week (a lovely multi-part thing that I can't wait to see out in the wild!) If any editors are on the lookout for writers and pitches, let me know!

Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.

Just done the math and I think I'll have a comic book out every single month this year except September. What I would've given to have the full run... Technically, I've got a 2000 AD out in the States that month but I can't count that. Still, there's always next year!

As part of my office refurb, I ended up with some of the smallest shelves ever. It’s been fun finding little knickknacks I own that fit and are also “me” enough that I want to look at them every single day.
