R.I.P. Soo Catwoman. I am so sorry to hear about this. Soo Catwoman (Susan Lucas) was such a notable figure, one of the most famous images of the whole punk era.

The Supercute Empire is under attack but Mox and Mitsu won't go down without a fight.

My first book, Milk, Sulphate and Alby Starvation, and my most recent book, Troubled Cities. Also a bottle of sweet potato shochu. I’ve not been feeling very inspired recently, it might help. #booksky

I wrote Simulation Bleed as a weekly serial. 'London, music, time travel, monsters, 1967- 77, therapy, swords, depression, alcohol, punk rock, gaming.'

My copy of New Rose, first single by the Damned. I remember buying this so well. I'd been buying records since I was twelve or so but when this came out everything else seemed quite old-fashioned. So R.I.P. Brian James, guitarist.

Curse of the Wolf Girl & the Anxiety of Kalix the Werewolf, books 2 and 3 in my werewolf trilogy. Curse of the Wolf Girl is a comic Kalix reads. The Anxiety of Kalix the Werewolf's title was inspired by The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, a Japanese light novel and anime series. #booksky

Lux and Alby Sign On and Save the Universe. These nine comics I wrote in 1991 have had a surprisingly long life. They were collected into a graphic novel in 1999 and I released a new edition in 2019 with the artist @simonfraser.bsky.social. We still sell this at Amazon. #booksky

'The Collected Martin Millar.' My publisher at the time, Fourth Estate, published this in 1998. I don't think they even consulted me about it. I didn't like the cover at first but it's grown on me over the years. #booksky

Excited to announce I've published a collection of #shortstories – the ones I couldn't use any more because they're previously published, been placed in competitions, or both.

Rainy Sunday? Stay indoors and read!

Available on Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Noble etc... https://buff.ly/3DJiu4n

'Ghost in the Shell - Fully Compiled' - A complete collection of Masamune Shirow's great manga featuring my favourite cyborg, Major Motoko Kusanagi. Arrived, with good timing, at the same time as my new reading glasses. #booksky

Lonely Werewolf Girl has been film-optioned for a few years now. Often that doesn't mean much - a producer buys the option then no film gets made. However, the option is with a credible company and it's possible it could happen. Here's Lonely Werewolf Girl with The Runaways, Kalix's favourite band.
