@IAmTheEggPod Wow. Speechless. 1st listen in radio 2 - wonderful! On 2nd listen now (headphones) -- awesome, spine-tingling, so much nuance in instrumentation, and the work they've done on John's voice is incredible. ๐ฒโค๏ธ
@Comichistorians I so admire Steve Ditko for sticking to his principles. It's so great to learn more about his family life and learn that him being a 'recluse' was an inaccurate myth. I'm glad Steve's legacy is in the hands of his caring family.
@Comichistorians This really brings home how brilliant Steve Ditko's characters and designs were. So admired him for his refusal to betray his principles.
THE DAY PAUL MET JOHN, 6 JULY 1957.
Paul: At Woolton village fete I met him. I was a fat schoolboy and as he leaned an arm on my shoulder, I realised that he was drunk. We were twelve then, but, in spite of his sideboards, we went on to become teenage pals.

They defund the NHS so it looks like itโs failed. Then we have to turn to privatisation and they cash in. They close all safe routes for asylum seekers entitled to our help under the human rights convention we signed up to. Then they blame asylum seekers themselves for crossing in boats and hold them up as racist bait in hotels while they wait years to be processed. They do this because they know capitalising on racism and attacking vulnerable people is a vote winner, even though it shouldnโt be. People die as a result of their inept policies. They blatantly throw parties and socialise during a pandemic whilst making it illegal for us to do so. They capitalise on the pandemic with commercial nepotism and corruption. They empower criminals and spread hate to distract from their BS. They attack the legal professionals protecting our rights by calling them lefty lawyers. They put inflation through the roof. They make house ownership an impossible dream whilst causing rents to rise everywhere. They increase energy bills to insane amounts, whilst passing laws to allow sewage to be dumped in our rivers and waters and discrediting any scientist who points out environmental or climate crises. They abdicate all responsibility for the bonkers mess of Brexit, the gift that keeps taking, and burden taxpayers with hare-brained unlawful multimillion pound deals to deport people to Rwanda with no right of appeal. They and their supporters have done so much damage to this country. Donโt let them completely destroy it. Letโs vote them out when we canโฆ They are the worst of us.
I say this with a heavy heart, My father passed away peacefully in his sleep. He is a legend in the art world and it would be my honor to follow in his footsteps. Please keep your thoughts and condolences here out of respect for my family.
He was the greatest man I ever met.
Bought this at a RIDICULOUSLY low price yesterday at Homesense in Broughton, near Chester. Retails at ยฃ120, but it only cost me ยฃ19.99. Well worth keeping your eyes open for bargains at this retail chain! ๐
