I just found out that the US comic strip "Dennis the Menace" was launched on the same day, 12th March 1951, as the one from the British comic The Beano. It's just a remarkable coincidence that the cartoonists had the idea for the same character name, although radically different personalities.

Amazon have announced that series 2 of Devil's Hour will be released on 18.10.2024. This is a supernatural thriller series starring Peter Capaldi and written by Tom Moran. I could imagine that this would appeal to older fans of #DoctorWhowww.youtube.com/watch?v=sOif...

This arrived today: Fleetwood McNabb. Ian McNabb's album of Fleetwood Mac covers. I'd totally forgotten ordering it.

I find it incredible how major Sci-Fi and fantasy franchises seem to start from a simple story and take on a whole life of their own. Star Wars, Doctor Who, Star Trek and so on all developed their own universes. Was it always like this? Where the Homeric Hymns jut Ancient Greek fan-fiction?
