Weeerll, basically, gods tend to congregate where there is either: a. something really terrible happening e.g. earthquakes, famine, flood, heroes or b. something free on offer to them e.g. offerings, prayers, virgins (although these can be offerings) etc. This means that, practically, they are every...

All those nicely hand-written labels seem to be marking cultural centres in the UK and Ireland.

Why would Manchester be there?

Mr Pratchett has pointed out that million to one chances occur nine out of ten times. Also L-space is infinite. Somewhere out there... your worst nightmare of a thread actually could exist.

Providing pieces of paper and 'peace in our time' are not on the menu, just how long can a Kryptonian live? OP has functioned, depending on which storyline you follow, between 6 and 9.5 million years so far and Supes is maybe, allowing for time spent in that nursery ship (rather than DC history), ab...

I love Latta's Starscream - soooo petulant little boy. Quite sweet, really. Makes me believe that Starscream could easily shoot someone in the back with callous disregard and want to be king of the castle in the playground. Must say that my other fave has to be David Kaye's Megs, for which role he h...

Retro, retro! Pax! If we all want to argue influence, I'll chuck the UK in there, too! The model is pretty awesome. It's brill that we have these shots of it. It may be a new design for Bumblebee, but that's really nothing new after all, since we have seen several artists treat this character differ...

Ratz!

Send in Wolvie and watch the metal fly.

And, quite possibly, bits of Supes (adamantium will give the Kryptonian's hair a trim at the neck).

Oh, Primus! The background is right for the recent movie shoot we have previously been directed to, so this isn't an alien autopsy - alright, so it might be, considering you can see inside Bumblebee. There doesn't appear to be enough moveable external armour to cover his 'nudity', but the guy in the...

If DC had done TF, then I doubt I'd ever have seen it here in the UK; the importer I frequented back then was almost exclusively Marvel. Indeed, having no DC UK, there would have been none of the slightly warped flavour this country developed, there would have been no Deathshead, displaying that dea...

This is the intro to a new series, like I said before, so it is going to be slow and it is going to be full of little things to watch out for (no - not Micromasters). Give peace a chance! Er - give this piece a chance! These are the raindrops that means the storm is coming and someone is going to ge...

Stormbringer - yes. Nice idea. Thunderwing? Um. We'll see. Enough teasers there for me to be going round to the comics emporium and putting even more orders in. I rather like the way the series will dovetail together. It has all been slow to date, but this is the lead in to a new wave of TF action a...

Still, nice Mahno's. Didn't notice them before. Must be a b***er to walk in and I have to admire any jet who can manage it. I honestly think that I prefer the original design, sans Robin Hood accessories.

Not bad in jet mode, but a bit skinny as a robot, which is my preferred display option. A favourite of the boys, so I'll think about it.

Have done the survey. Yup - no button for 'other', but I improvised and filled out the box as well as picking the option that stood out the most. Don't know if that'll cause any problems!

It's a bad thing, my dear, because I have no idea about any characterisation, having only seen write-ups. Perhaps Megs is really a deformed Batmobile or a ballet dancer?

Another version of the 'Days of Future Present' is on its way, then. How sweet; a Superhero Registration Act rather than a Mutant one. I think it's a great idea to have a stalwart hero come out of the closet (didn't Northstar really come out first?) and unmask. Next logical step after finally exposi...
