Rich Johnston – What’s Happened Now? My new online strip, lettered and coloured by Mike Meyer is called Holed Up!
The Gutter Press column has died. But you can read the two printed columns below. Ramblings 2000 has split into two – a commercial form and a non-commercial form. The commercial form, called All The Rage can be read at http://www.silverbulletcomicbooks.com The non-commercial form, all the bits that won’t fit into All The Rage, can be read by scrolling down! Expect an infrequent column however. Here’s the latest online stuff I’ve been writing. All The Rage 30 July 2000 - Where is Tomorrow Stories 8 and is Grant Morrison being courted to write the next Batmovie? The Gutter Press 14 July 2000 – The cancellation of Obergeist, news about Shelley Bond and more. 6 July 2000 – Rumours of Marvel character sales, the truth about Sentry, its sequel and problems at Impulse Rich’s Rumblings 23 July 2000 – Not The San Diego Comic Con 2000 Report 16 July 2000 - Why Steven Grant Is Wrong – the use of ‘shock’ as a literary device 9 July 2000 – Comics Warren Ellis Isn’t Reading – a look at the Sleaze Castle books, some of the finest in the medium 2 July 2000 – Selling Out In Style, the scoop on The Gutter Press June 25 2000 - Image Don’t Publish Superheroes No More – a company changing for the better June 18 2000 - Turn Of The Sentry – how the news sources have conspired behind the publicists June 11 2000 - The Other Column – the life and times of a rumour monger June 4 2000 - Time Gentlemen Please – a review of Al Murray’s new sitcom and Paul Grist’s new comic, Jack Staff May 24 2000 - The Cult Of Warren Ellis – a heavily fictionalised and satirical look at the rise of Warren Ellis |
