Aka Wednesday 14th August 2019
Brought the latest 2000AD partwork, volume six of Strontium Dog, which continues the adventures of Johnny Alpha, and the latest Lego
Batman, so that I could get The Flash minifigure:
…and I watched ‘Storage 24’, about a monster on the loose
inside a 24hour storage facility and the people trying to kill it/escape it.
And it’s a nice little horror film, the characters feel real and you care about
them (except for the ones who are dicks and you’re probably not meant to kind
for them anyway), there are plenty of scares and a decent script and cast,
which help carry you past any deficiencies caused by the small budget (e.g. while
the monster looks good, you don’t forget that it is a special effect and not a
real creature).
…and I did today’s
G2 Crossword:
…which was a tricky one to get started on, which wasn’t
helped by me miss-spelling ‘mussel’ as ‘muscle’! But in the end, it went pretty
damn fine, once I started getting answers the intersecting letters helped
identify what the other answers were and I only had to cheat on an eighth of
the clues (three out of 24) (or a Henry as we called it in my student days).
And I learnt that Denmark has a monarchy.
