Loving Brass Sun already and delighted to hear its got legs, all be they clockwork.

Very intrigued that Red Seas has a 'replacement' wonder if its with Steve Yeowell as well. Much like Dante I'll miss it when its gone but glad it'll have an ending.

[O Lucky Stevie!]

Stevie’ s been jazzed about this since Edgy first mentioned a clockwork orrery cosmology as a possible gaming IP a few years back.

To learn that he’s once more teamed with regular collaborators Matt “Every year that US comics doesn’t recognise his genius is a great year for 2000ad” Brooker aka D’Israeli & The New Deadwardian’s INJ Culbard (you NEED their SelfMadeHero published adaptation of A Princess of Mars) well... That's just the icing on the cake, isn't it?

As per Colin, also very excited about Ian & Steve Yeowell's Red Seas replacement. Something a bit more contemporary involving Isaac Newton in a Great British TV SF mode perhaps?


Oh, & Edgy's paying tribute to Brett Ewins brought a tear to the eye.

That's one fine interview & no mistake.

As much as I enjoyed the opening episode of Brass Sun - long may it run and without these infernal year-long gaps between stories! - I'm even more thrilled to read that "Edgy" (love it, Stevie) is hard at work on new Stickleback and Ampney Crucis adventures. That is great news!
