Perhaps unwisely, I've moved back down to London again. Just for work, you know? And only during the week.

Anyway, it's turned out that 'Alex's Grandma' lives in the flat downstairs from where I'm staying at the moment, and that we've been hanging about a bit recently, because of a problem to do with the pipes. Ze seems like a good bloke, was my initial impression, but then I began to wonder. Ze seemed to be shaking quite a lot, all the time. And going red in the face. And pestering me about the supercontext.

Eventually, I said; 'out with it, mate; are you all right?' and ze said that ze was a member of this board (which has, frankly, always seemed like a source of shame to me,) and that there were, in fact are, various questions that people want answered. So, for the next week or so, before I catch a plane to Tibet a bit earlier than originally planned (and it cost me a monkey to change the ticket, so don't say I don't care) I'll be here. Because I love you. And hate you.

Mine's a guava, strawberry, orange etc smoothie, if anyone's going to the bar. Half that and half voddy, and we should be flying. Eventually.

Does anyone else think this whole thing's getting a bit overplayed?

Well possibly. What thing do you mean though, Spider-Man?

A square go seems be in order then, big man.

All right, Byrne; when was the last time you heard anyone discussing your run on The Doom Patrol at a conventon, unless they had tears* in their eyes?

* Not good tears. Bad tears.

I quit doing the convention schtick long ago and you know it.

Still wolfing down the acid and "talking" to Superman? And has He asked you not to portray him as effeminate?

Hey, Stan! High five! Even though it's a bir embarassing ... Ah to hell with it, I love you, Stan!

You've always been a major inspiration to me.

Unlike some other people I could mention.

Not to worry Nina - the troubling bearded man is from Universe B which = not cool.

Oh god! Millar's back.

Look Mark, it was funny when you were pretending to be THE HOLY ONE when you showed us all your ASS. But now you're interfering with old ladies in an attempt to turn us against HE WHO'S BALDY HEAD SHINES WITH KNOWLEDGE. Where's it going to end Millar? Where is it going to end?

PS Can I have a signed autograph of Civil War 1? I've not read it myself but I understand it to be surprisingly adequate.

Of course you can, ES!

(Although in terms of the 'surprisingly adequate' thing, you may find yourself feeling 'vaguely sad and lonely')

Excelsior!

Mark.
