It's still one of my regular reads, and I really need to get off my metaphorical ass and comment more often than I do. Always good stuff.

Yeah, just want to throw in that I'm loving Mindless Ones. The Rogue's Revision columns are ace, particularly the ones about BAT-BREAKER and Oswald (any more in the works?).

Quite interested to find out if the hinted at article about the Prismatic Age is coming any time soon as it sounded elevenses.

Moar.

Need to ask the Falcon that.

As I said upthread, there'd deffo more Rogue's Reviews in the pipeline.

I wish I could see the smile on your faces now. I'm sure you guys have at least once played swingball on the commentary sections.

Btw, who else from the Lith writes there? I know amy poodle is Pigs/Runce/Natural and bobsy is, well, Bobsy. But the other names don't tell me much.

Basically, I am the worst blogger ever. I've been promising the team that post for about 3(?) months and, frankly, there are not enough punches in the world for me. For what I deserve.

The premise is sound, really, but >ahk< crippling self-doubt, second-guessing myself, bla bla, weak shit, so uncool. It's super-nice to feel wanted though, so I'll try another run at it - there's conceivably a book in the topic though I'd not be the one to write it, clearly, unless the market of 2037AD has a particular vacuum.

Botswana Beast is Falconer, thebeastmustdie is MacGyver/Iron Man/Superman, Lactus... well, he hasn't posted here much for years and years but when he did he went by the name Fraely. Tymbus is not a 'lither. I'm Qthgrq, obvs.

We are hoping to run a number of guest posts under screen name The Doubtful Guest. LDones is supposed to be working on one right nowish.

macgyver/iron man/superman = the beast must die
fraely boyce = lactus

In addition - the swingball attack is just about the finest bit of affirmation for a work I've done 3% of that I'll ever cop. Total ping-ons.

Thanks. It's nicer to pin down to more recognizable 'faces'. You get a more coherent flavor for each writing.

you got a recommendation/nice little paragraph on Grant Morrison's new website - congratulations! He links y'all in there, which I'm sure is no news to you, the actual creators/writers on the site.

from GM's blog:

>> MINDLESS ONES - partly because I find myself agreeing with almost everything they say but mostly for the brilliant articles and essays on characters I never thought I cared about until the Ones MADE me care. The pieces on Batman villains Bane and the Penguin are remarkable and I can‘t wait to see more along the same lines. Check them out here at.... [link]

Thanks Wolfie. If you direct your eyes about 8 0r so posts above this you'll see we've already been slapping our own backs.

So...Lapham...Morrison...Woodring...

What next? Moore?

I'm going to write an article really slagging him off.

21:48 / 03.07.08
ah, I scanned the thread carefully for previous mentions of this, but didn't click the link to Morrison's site (not quite knowing what a 'swingball attack' was)

A swingball attack is sexy times. Sexy times with a bald gentleman of certain repute.

or, God forbid I give a compliment to someone, not having clicked on a link that, by its name, looked like it was a non-sequitur.

Seriously, I was only poking fun. FinderWolf is like a little bee, pollinating all across the internets. I find it harmless.

Oh, and it's brill you lot are getting the love from George. You are the deserve!

Jettison your doubts, Busts'wana Beast! I want that article in and on time!

David Lapham interview in the pipeline. Hoorah.

Can't think what to ask him now.

Where's the Penguin Rogues Review Muzzlebot mentions? I look and I look and then I cry because my web-fu shames my family honour.

Do you want to know the other other reason I heart the Mindless? It gets past my work's interweb filters like badass Hand assassins.

Check out the site, mad science guy. I've rounded 'em all up and linked to them.

Cheers Boboss, you are a scholar, a gentleman, and (some would say) an acrobat.

Sheeeez, I endorse and link to you guys from my blog and it gets no mention. But Grant does and it's all "ooh, ooh, look, yay us!"


I see how it is.
 
 
Boboss

I promise you there was much cheering behind the scenes. We also linked to you straight away.

Wanna do an interview!

Grant always was the best pirate, Cameron... you were only ever alright.

Tbh, I found it pretty exciting and overwhelming almost to be put on Jog's sidebar or be linked by Journalista, so this all is kind of beyond belief. A massive amount of the credit has to go to the Runce, really.

Amypoodle emailed me a while ago and asked, and I said sure. Just waiting for the questions...
