A week to go, and I must admit I’m feeling festive. The tree’s up, the fire is glowing and the presents are… well, let’s not talk too much about that, shall we. I may have to rush out and go shopping for the season, but you might not. And for those of you planning a lazy Saturday, why not catch up on some popular posts from the past week right here.
- We’ll start with Frank Martin and his TV review for Doom Patrol S04 ep.1 here, a piece on The Handmaid’s Tale (TV vs. film), and a look back at the Stargirl show here.
- This past month Richard Bruton has been delving deep into Santa’s sack to pull out some Christmas’ crackers with his annual, month-long Comicon Advent Calender, with Day 11 making the list.
- On the comic book front we had a first look at Mark Millar and Juanan Ramírez’s Night Club #2 here.
- IDW announced it was to celebrate Star Trek: Deep Space 9’s 30th anniversary with a new series here.
- Dynamite Comics also had a new book to announce, with the return of Dejah Thoris here; a prequel series set before the very first John Carter novel.
- Even more comic book news as Z2 Comics reported it will be publishing a graphic novel in partnership with Metallers, Ice Nine Kills. Read all about it here.
- I caught up with Mark Russell and Steve Pugh to discuss their return to Billionaire Island with sequel title, Billionaire Island: Cult of Dogs here.
- Richard Bruton reported on a new Kickstarter campaign for Howard Hardiman’s A Stormy Day with Badger and Vole here.
- Then we had a bit of gaming news making the list too. Sage Ashford reported on a new trailer for Blue Protocol from Bandai-Namco and Amazon Games here.
- Finally, a few regular columns also continue to prove popular. Brendan M Allen’s Jumping On, House of X, Koom Kankesan’s Christmas Book Club and Anna Lindwasser’s One Piece Diaries.
And so, before I do rush to the shops, I’ll leave you with this festive tune, and one of my all-time favourites, ‘Christmas in Hollis’ by Run DMC. Have a good one, everyone.
