Once again it's the anniversary of the time I needed a van at ITV and the only one they had for me to use was literally a prop from Coronation Street.

Which I didn't really know because I don't watch Coronation Street.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?

Y'know what? I think I'm probably ok.

Throwback to when I was just an innocent man.

I hadn't heard anything about this film beyond Farnaby writing it, and that feels like ages ago, so I'm very glad that it is in fact real and coming out next year!

Throwback to when CITV got to go to a swanky media party down in That There London. With an 80s theme, natch.

OK, last #comic for sale for now, moving away from Transformers and into my other 80s obsession, #Garfield.

This is issue 1 of the Garfield comic from a few years ago. Also in excellent condition!

Outside of cult hits and Big Two superhero stuff, I'm selling a #Transformers annual from 2011. This is a UK hardback annual, and was published by Titan to tie into the live-action movies.

So if any of my Transformer-loving friends are interested, please take a look!

I'm also selling #Deadman issue 1 by Neal Adams. This was from a few years ago. It has a great embossed glow-in-the-dark cover.

It's possible I've never actually read this comic.

Back to single issues, and I'm selling issue 1 of Sex Criminals, a comic I find hard to talk about online in case I end up on some kind of list.

It's really good though! And funny! You've probably heard of it, it was a big success.

So you could own the first issue!

Another #Comic series I have for sale is Marvel's Secret Invasion, which inspired the, er, notorious? Infamous? Much-discussed?! TV series of a couple of years ago.

The comic's better.

I'm also selling #TeenTitans Year One, a mini-series from a few years ago with gorgeous cartoony art that tells the hitherto unknown secret origin of the Teen Titans.

This is the complete series in single issues.

I'm selling some #comics on eBay! Please take a look if you like comics.

For instance, #MsMarvel issue 1, which is a first-printing in excellent condition (think I read it once and since then it's been stored carefully)

If you see this post an album cover with a motor vehicle.

I was looking at this M&S Christmas catalogue upside down and for a moment I thought this reindeer was a mince pie with a lovely little cthulu on it.

So #Keeper by @doublefine.com really does have a kind of otherworldly beauty.

When I was a kid I absolutely adored the escalating imagery of the Back to the Future posters. I pored over them, examining the differences on the time machine and the characters' clothes. I thought it was so clever to have one more character each time! And, of course, the artwork is sublime.

Funnily enough, when googling "1981 videogame releases", I also found this lost gem.

What's even funnier is that apparently Leisure Suit Larry is basically a remake of this.

QRT with a game released the year you were born, you say? Well I have a funny feeling Nick and I are the same age.
