It's been a really busy few weeks ... I really must get back to doing some Strange Times pages ... the website entries are fast catching up with me ....

New Fastest Man review ...

OK ... when I read this one I thought that I might have written it myself and somehow hacked it onto the Newsarama website ... and then I remembered I'm not that clever :o)

Check it out ... http://www.newsarama.com/comics/091103-Best-Shots-Advanced.html, although I do seem to have trouble accessing the website at the moment ... maybe I imagined it after all.

Robot Shorts - A to Z. I is for .....

It's been a busy few weeks, October and November being Comics Convention season over here in the UK are typically busy, but this year we've added to the problem with Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ? hitting the November's Diamond PREVIEWS catalogue.

Good news is that it has been given a SPOTLIGHT box around the listing, which will hopefully raise it to the attention of retailers as they make their orders. Bad news is that the same PREVIEWS catalogue has so may cross over events from DC and Marvel that I can see the retailers having very little spare cash with which to try something new, which is probably the DC/Marvel plan. Still, we've emailed reviews and low res PDF link out to about 800 retailers across the globe, mostly in the USA, so we'll have to see.

I'm off to a DAMA conference next week ... nothing to do with LOST I'm sorry to say, just a Data Conference ... to do with the day job ... sigh.

Pop over to see Jason Cobley's review of Fastest Man ...

Jason Cobley picked up a copy of ''Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ?'' at the BICS event and has written some very nice words about it over on his blog ...

Robot Short - A to Z. H is for ....

At the moment I'm busy preparing my brain for the MCM Expo next weekend ... it's a huge convention but sadly not all about comics ... film stars rub shoulders with comic stars ... and us ;o)

We've managed, thanks to Diamond UK, to get 4 pages ... yes ... 4 whole pages in the MCM Expo Booklet ... you can check it out yourselves http://www.myebook.com/index.php?option=ebook&id=17552 ... we're at the end of the book .. where people tend to start their browsing ;o) Thanks go once again to Andy Bloor for designing the 'advert-that's-not-really-an-advert' page.

Also Fastest Man is still getting plugged over at http://www.hypergeek.ca/ as we near the November Previews.

Busy ... busy ...
