Obviously buy it from a tax-paying, in-person, friendly, local bookshop if you are lucky to have one nearby. Independent bookshops have always look after me - Jeff Bezos has never made me a cup of tea or given me a lift to the train station.

There are jokes/references only the grown ups will get in my book. For example the main villain is a rubbish cousin of Medusa called, Meduli.

Your weekly reminder that if you haven’t got a copy of my brand new graphic novel for 7-11 year olds (and clever 6 year olds) then you are missing out big stylee.

Here’s what actual QI elf @schreiberland.bsky.social said about it (and I didn’t pay/bribe him)

A cucumber is very much like a bishop in chess in that it can only go diagonally (in the salad compartment of the fridge)

There are lots of reasons to be excited about this but a big one for me is that I'm getting a SLEEPER TRAIN to it! I think mentioned it about 56 times in a meeting with the producers. Though very, very chuffed about the actual event too, I promise

Today is Mario Day (Mar10) so here’s a peeky sneak from the next Far-Out Five where Bloof gets sucked into an 8-bit style video game.

The nerds in the room will spot my bonus Ghostbusters reference.

Amidst the fun of World Book Week I forgot to mention that my show at the Leicester Comedy Festival has been nominated for ‘Best Poster’.
In my book, having a good poster is far better than being funny! 🎈

All your budding comic book makers should beg, borrow or steal* a copy of this week’s Week Junior.

*I don’t advocate theft unless it’s wooden pencils from Ikea

A lot of people give up halfway when making a massive corridor. But I'm in it for the long hall.
