Return of the 90s. Part 1.
I was in a central London comic shop yesterday. Actually quite an arty one.
I was near the assistance desk and overheard the following discussion.
Just a bit of proof that the 90s are returning! If you don't agree just have a look inside a DC New 52 book or at the Valiant relaunch?
A. How many of this new ethnic Avengers title shall I order?
B. Who is writing it again? Oh it's Al Ewing. As much as I love Al it's not gonna be big is it.
A. So how many?
B. Order just enough to get the variant.
A. OK.
West End Fraud?
I came across the following in a West End (of London) gallery!
Firstly. The price is a crime in itself. But look who got credited with the art.
There is nothing there that Stan knows anything about this. Another case of the artist getting ripped off!

Neal Adams meets Bruce Lee.
At yesterday's London Film and Comic Convention at Earls Court in London I had the pleasure of buying this print from Neal Adams.
I picked out this great Bruce Lee print from. 1970s Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu magazine. It's a superb image. Loved it since I bought the issue.
Upon walking up to the table I noticed that Neal and Alan Davis were deep in conversation about inking pens. I stood there and listened like a 14 year old. Neal is an absolute gent and chatted to me about the cover.
Made my day!
NIA.
Swag.
I picked up some great stuff at yesterday's London Film and Comic Con.
Included are these awesome Spider-Man Strikes Back lobby cards.
