Scotland's Amazing Comic Book Heroes

[The Doctor]

'Scottish writers Mark Millar, Grant Morrison and Alan Grant are three of the biggest names in the world of comics. Between them they have created adventures for Batman, Superman, Judge Dredd and The X Men, and the plots of films such as Wanted and Kick Ass. ArtWorks Scotland tells the story of how Scots took over these American icons and also uncovers the world's first comic strip in Glasgow's Mitchell Library.'

Worth a look if you can catch it before it expires.

Indeed, even if the usual 'look, look, comics are like the 60's Batman TV show, look, look' interstitials made me want to reach through the screen and punch someone.

Likewise.

That enraged me. Fucking lazy.
