..really ended up enjoying Being Human season 2 - and not for the usual Bristol spotting reasons so this is potentially good news. Especially if it maintains the tone of season 2 of BH..
I’m guessing Paul O’Connell had a bit of free time on his hands as this is a work of (twisted) genius.

The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage
On Friday I attended an event called The Story - which I have written about over here - and one of the big highlights was discovering this webcomic by Sydney Padua which I encourage everyone to check out.
As a taster here is a picture of the great man IK Brunel who makes a cameo in one of the stories..
just read this and it is HIGHLY recommended - the art is beautiful and the story is much more accessible that much of Warrens stuff - it is kind of like a John Ford Western but with characters from the science fiction pulps of the 1930s.
I am hoping this is just the first volume in an ongoing story but you never know with Ellis. Certainly my favourite book so far in 2010.
Garfunkel and Oates..something to cheer up a dull Sunday..
Pretty much in love with these two very funny ladies - kinda like Flight of the Concords but not Kiwis (or blokes!).
The little dark haired woman is in Scrubs - in fact she is about the only funny thing in the most recent series..
This Party Took a Turn for the Douche by Garfunkel and Oates (via rikilind)
Something a bit different for Quiet Night In but I thought this was quite cool even if it has blatantly been created to go ‘viral’. The all look a little too sober to be real footy hooligans though in my experience..
Hard Chorus (via nachshon8)
It is obviously just a rumor and may not come to anything but I could really find myself getting excited about this if it turns into something.
As a DC nut I believe a great Superman film is the foundation on which all other DC properties hang-on. Batman is a great character but Superman is, well Superman!
After the Singer Super-stalker atrocity I hope someone can rescue this franchise and maybe Nolan is the man for the job. Hire Kurt Busiek and or Geoff Johns (please not Mark Millar no matter how much he hypes it!) to write it and I’d be a happy bunny!
Brilliant interaction timeline sorting out ‘Lost’ into some kind of chronological order. I’ll be honest it doesn’t clear much up about the show for me - think that ship has sailed (and crashed much like the ‘Black Rock’!) but it is nice to see some attempt at order even if it all seems a little like an after-thought!
Losers was a top notch comic book..
(if rather let down by a stupid ending in my humble..)
..that is now going to be a pretty fun movie if it lives up to this trailer.
The story is kind of sort of an alternate reality version of the ‘A-Team’ as directed by Tarantino..
Created by the British duo of Andy Diggle and Jock the comic a must-read for anyone looking for something action packed but lacking spandex and I have high hopes for the movie..
This was a bit of throw-away blog furniture on a recent post from Bleeding Cool but I hadn’t seen it before and thought it was quite fun.
I’ve always been much more of a DC guy than Marvel but I have always liked the fact that Marvel used real cities as the base for its heroes and this is a nice map putting that into context for Manhattan..
