His Dark Materials

BBC One today announces the commission of a new drama series based on Philip Pullman’s epic fantasy trilogy of novels, His Dark Materials

*Still thinks of his cats as daemons*

Talking of BBC Drama I’ve been recording The Last Kingdom (based on Bernard Cornwell’s Alfred series). I’m looking forward to that, though I still think the world is crying out for a Winter King adaptation.

Preacher

Pretty excited about this. I’ve only got the 1st Preacher TPB – after finishing The Boys I decided to read some lighter comics (I found the last third pretty hard-going) – but I should pick up some more. After I’ve read some more American Vampire, Transmetropolitan, Manhattan Projects, East of West, Saga…

PS: read the Youtube comments to reassure yourself that the internet still works in exactly the same way it did the last time you were here.

Comic-Con

When I get the chance I’ll be posting a bunch of stuff from SDCC. Quick thoughts though:

  • The new BvS trailer makes me actually want to watch BvS (which is a nice change from previous footage/stills)
  • The Force Awakens showreel does more than any trailer could to make me believe this is going to be amazing
  • Ash vs The Evil Dead looks great
  • Victorian Sherlock!
  • Deadpool!!
