Do We Have Any Published Writers On The Forum? (2022 edition)

Quote from: Small Man Big Horse on October 06, 2023, 10:51:24 PMFor a kid's comic there's quite a lot of political jibes in Doomlord, and some commentary on how we're fucking up the environment that surprised me given that it was published in the early eighties.

I remember one scene where the leader of some corporation is on a talk show on television.  The interviewed produces a vessel filled with effluent his company has pumped into waterways and blindsides him with evidence of corporate malpractice, whereupon the man kills himself by drinking the chemical waste the other man placed before him.

The first series taught me properly for the first time what the United Nations was, as there's a part where Doomlord ends up there in the body of someone he has slain.

my book went up on Amazon yesterday and immediately sold out, and I know it's not an error because I've seen peoples' pre order fulfilments

fucking hell!!

My copy arrived a couple of days ago from LRG. Really enjoying it, have to force myself to take regular breaks so I don't finish it too soon. I think I'll return to it regularly, in particular as a reference for games to get in the future, but I want to savour my first read through. Even Toki gets a mention! I agree with everything you say about it, but I chose it as a username because I couldn't remember the name of Bonk's Adventure. If I could go back in time, I'd be known as Bonk. Back on point, love the book and looking forward to more Video World.

Just wanted to send you a big congratulations! One day, when you're rich and famous, I can say I knew Madhair when he was just a poster on a tinpot comedy forum... and he was a cu--

Seriously, though, congrats. Well deserved.

My Kickstarter campaign ends on Friday and it's been doing really, and has just past the £600 mark, which should hopefully mean Cancer Research will get at least £470 (depending on Kickstarter fees and publishing costs). I'm hoping that target might go up a little bit though and am doing one more PR push, and on that note, just in case you've ever wanted to see the comedian Ian Lane in the bath (though sadly it's not one which is rolling down a hill), I thought I'd post the first five pages here:
