SILENCE! #238
October 25th, 2017
Hey Kids – Stop snogging and listen to me!
Silence is back! And it’s smaller, longer and more claustrophobic than ever before! Welcome to The Temple of Lactus where the atoms of reality are comics and batman really is the god of my two fathers.
Cursing silver, Das Biest Muss Sterben drags his bloody pelt through the wilds of the black forest gateau and has NO TIME FOR PODCASTING, LOSERS. This means: homely, hirsute but dutiful farmer’s daughter Bobsy is kidnapped from his cosy homestead and forced into the servitude of the Spacelord and his menagerie of wives (x1) sons (x1) and cats (x2).
They strip down to their essentials and get down to business. Their business is comic book reviews and business is in no particular order –
Magpie 1&2, Triskelion 5 – Kathryn Briggs
The Cleaner 4 – Fraser Geesin
Rok of the Reds 1-3 – Wagner, Grant and Cornwell
Reads 4 – Avery Hill Publishing
Berserker 1 – Breakdown Press
Battle Action Force – Major Black
Here come the beautiful people and Counting Stones – Douglas Noble
Prismatik Man 1 – Stathis Tsemberlidis
Stone Focus and Propagation of… – Lando
STEELBLADE 1 by Steven Steelblade
Into the Black by Benjy Goldsmith and Cicy Reay
Generation Gone 1-3 – Ales Kot and Andre Lima Araujo
What is Left – Rosmary V-O
Mr. Higgins Comes Home – Mike Mignola and Warwick Johnson-Cadwell
Kid Lobotomy – Peter Milligan and Tess Fowler

Hi hi! Clarky T Bubs here, just jumping on to say that, while I was involved with the early days of ShortBox and helped with setting it up, it’s now 100% Zainab’s venture, and I would wholly recommend checking it out if you want a wodge of great indie comics through your door every few months or so – http://www.shortbox.co.uk/
Also, Zainab’s on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/Zainab and, like Bobsy and Gazza Lactus say, she’s a voice in comics discourse who’s well worth supporting.
Cheers! Byeeeeeeeeeeeee
