  • Yeah, I was pondering if it’d be possible to make it less of an issue. I presume the metal of the discs and chain is pretty thin, so you could get to work with tin snips, a file and some needle-nose pliers. Take them off, rework some and hang them back up. However, a) I’m not sure it could be done satisfactorily and b) that sounds like a lot of hassle for some, hopefully, cheap knickknack, so I’d probably just make it have an accident.




  • The Bumper Book of Magic has been in the pipeline that a number of contributors are dead but the novel he is promoting now is the first in a series, we already know the name of the next one.

    He effectively retired from writing comics in mid-2019 but signed a book deal with Bloomsbury for his short story collection and the five novel series we are starting to get. At the time he declared himself to be “bursting with fiction”. I’m not aware of anything that suggests he is ready to throw the towel in quite yet. In fact, he seems reinvigorated.
