In my freewheeling current mental state this evening, I nearly considered pledging a quarter of a grand for some Kickstarter "exclusive" anniversary book'n' gubbins package.
It's all bollocks, innit?
Thank god I was listening to The Stranglers tonight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzFO...

Tharg's arch-enemies, The Dictators Of Zrag strike again. You'd think the arch enemy of the editor of 2000 AD would be Stan Lee.
I can't quite work out whether the office carpet is on fire here or if its mouldy wallpaper.

Two 2000 AD back page treats today.
A Nemesis The Warlock strip pictorial 'ghoul'ossary of sorts.
...and a salute to Tom Frame. Letterers never get any recognition, so fair play to Tharg for acknowledging those often unsung peeps working at the coalface of comics.

Dredd story that if I recall seemed to have entirely lifted the plot from the horror film, Alligator (1980). One of those video rental stalwarts at the time.

First they tell us 2000AD is zarjaz, scrotnig and ghafflebette, but then Johnny Alpha reveals that it is all an illusion and the comic this week is merely quite good.
Although, 'Mutie and the beast' is the best cover pun they've done yet!

But wait! Those bubbles floating around his head in comic strips often signifies heavy inebriation. Is he actually blind drunk!?!

I got woken up 'again' this morning by the builder next door shouting out "FIRE IN THE HOLE!"
Perhaps, tomorrow he could disturb me by bellowing a different movie cliche?
ie- "WE'VE GOT COMPANY!"
Or "YOU JUST DON'T GET IT, DO YOU?"
Or "YOU AND I ARE NOT SO DIFFERENT AFTER ALL!

Interesting chazza shop 7" single find of the week. I didn't know London Weekend Television had its own record label. Reggae theme tune for a sitcom about the unbridled hilarity of being in an interracial marriage in 1978. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZwL...

A time when this sort of weirdo/ hateful discourse only had a voice in the back pages of the music press, now online you can't get away from this sort of crap.
