Finally, after years of waiting there will — according to Bilbo Baily, and he should know --be a series three of Black Books. Series two will be out on dvd just before series three begins its showcase on the telly. This is good news. Better news would have to include series three of Spaced, but you can’t have everything.

Lots of Jerry Cornelius things right now. After the latest book in the book group’s reading list, Åka became inspired to do a fanzine in with the same sort of structure and then I saw that Grant Morrison had created an excellent rip-off in the Invisibles: Entrophy in the UK with the character Gideon Stargrave. Everything is there, almost anyway. The party bit is missing. Morrison succeeds in making the comic more fun than the original books. And I can’t help to wonder about the truth about the lawsuit.

– I didn’t want you to miss all the fun. It’s the dawn of a new age, Gideon.
– Christ, I hope not. We only just got rid of the old one. Still, how about a toast, sis. To chaos.
