Review.

There you are! I can see you again! My glasses have returned from London. They said it was nice to go away, but it's nicer to come back. Anyway, I've got my vision back.
I might have mentioned that I'm in a book called MC2 , which is out now in most bookshops of quality. You just have to look very hard for it. It was weird seeing it in Waterstone's the other weekend. A story I've written and drawn is on sale in Waterstone's! It was tucked in between a history of Wonder Woman and a book on old Commando comic strips, but even so, it felt nice. I wonder if Salman Rushdie feels the same when he's in Waterstone's with his bodyguard and sees Midnight's Children? I bet he has a wry smile under his fake beard. Anyway, the book has recently gone on sale in the States, and it's been reviewed here, by a very nice man called Joshua Pantalleresco (how American is that name?) who obviously knows what he's on about, as he likes the book. Who said the Yanks are stupid?

I saw it in the 'Indie' section in Forbidden Planet in fancy London.

So I did. I didn't buy it though.

Oh, sorry, that was me, I said the Yanks are stupid. I was in a bad place then, I was really drunk, I'd just split up with my barber. They didn't speak to me for a while, but I got a mutual friend to act as a go-between, and it's all been forgiven, even if the Yanks do tend to avoid parties they know I'm going to be at.
