I’ve been told repeatedly that the new Walking Dead series is a bit suspect (you know who you are Mary), so even though I enjoyed the first episode, I’m not hugely looking […]
Comics of the year – Duncan the wonder dog
I was tempted to write a top ten comics of the year, but really there was no way i could, as I don’t read enough of them. After a small bit of […]
