He's Only A Writer - 12/05 - "Hotel Beds and Hungover Heads..."  
"The bottles of gin have been tidied away and the boxes of pizza are being folded into rubbish bin sized portions. Having been bought at around 2am on the Friday night, this pizza has been the sustenance for all our needs and has pretty much kept us alive since day one. The three day pizza is now looking bad, but not to Dan, who munches slowly while crying weakly to himself."

"This year was actually quite relaxed, with Top Cow busywhizz Rob Levin coming all the way from the West Coast of Americaland to see how the British creators party. The fear was evident on his face from the first moment he arrived, followed quickly by amusement and then loathing..."

"Last year, there was a girl, very well endowed dressed as the Marvel character Black Cat. Pretty much every man who saw her (as the costume was VERY accurate and she was close to bursting) was appreciative - until it came out that she was actually fourteen. Then, it spread around like wildfire and everywhere you could see were men flagellating themselves, convinced that they were going to hell. This year she was back again on the Friday night. And this time we knew to look away. Until it came out that she was actually twenty seven, and the whole 'fourteen' thing? Was spread by her savvy boyfriend who knew that this was a surefire way to stop men trying to steal her from him..."


"Hotel Beds and Hungover Heads..." Where we talk about the Bristol Comic Con, the Golden Champagne Glass Awards, Action, Ohio and Superman, and 2000ad editor Tharg likes his pitches given...

He's Only A Writer. Every Monday at Comics Bulletin. And only advertised late - the column WAS there yesterday...
