Some of you might be unsure of a G2 poetry collection - you fools! Here is an excerpt to whet your appetite! The book tells the story of G2 in chronological order - and all proceeds go to Mary's Meals! This poem tells the story of Optimus Prime's Matrix vision quest in issue 5  |

Good lord you lot have been busy! Where has all this come from!? When did you have time?! In all honesty, work has been a nightmare recently, I've been doing 12 hour days regularly, I just haven't stopped when I got home. Hopefully it is all worth it!! |

A live theatrical reading in Phil's garden once the extension is complete to celebrate?

This is the fanzine I chose to read first,
Though much of G2 in the nineties I cursed.
It was too bleak and depressing for me,
It simply wasn't my cup of tea.
And the less said about Manny Galan the better,
Though Yaniger was clearly some kind of trend-setter.
The speech balloons were very disco
But look what they did to San Francisco!
What I'm trying to say is this,
Although at the time it was less hit than miss.
If only the story had been written in verse
It would have given more laughter, for better or worse.
Hachette may claim to be publishing the definitive G1.
(Though we've all pointed out the things they got wrong.)
But for me, on my bookshelf, I today inform you
'Vast Bird' is the definitive (and only) G2.

Isn't technology marvellous!

I shall see about editing the instalments into one compilation.
I'm hoping I've kept all the garageband files.
