It’s silly, but I’ve been mulling over the question of “could I write Terran Omega as an on going comic series”. I keep thinking, well, I’d run out of material, really. But I suspect in coming up with a character who was a weapon designed for a war long past, in a galaxy where people still live with the trauma of that millennial old conflict, I’ve accidentally stumbled across something that will always be relevant. Sadly, every news item throws up two or three ideas or things worth exploring.
The harder thing, I think would be figuring out ways to approach those stories that would keep it interesting both to write and to read. I mean not every story should be a ghost story, not every story should be a sad window into a sad world. You need hope too.
Anyway. I’m sure you’re as familiar as I am about the news (and for the record, for about 15 years from now when the blog might still be going, this is about Trump going to war with Iran).
I try and avoid talking about the news here, because, well, it’s already everywhere. But this is hard to avoid.
Pencilled two pages I’m happy with (unusual!)
Watched Abigail (try and avoid spoilers, but you won’t be able too – but actually it’s pretty great and funny) and The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Largely by the numbers, nice to look at, lacking the humour of Abigail. but still fun.
Yesterday in Social Media
Oh the new Gorillaz video, absoloutly stunning, and all hand drawn! https://www.catsuka.com/news/2026-02-27/gorillaz-the-mountain-the-moon-cave-and-the-sad-god-en-ligne-realise-par-jamie-hewlett-max-taylor-et-tim-mccourt-au-studio-the-line
And … it’s late so I’m off to bed.
