I’m an old school cyberpunk fan (read Neuromancer in the 80s). I stumbled across w0rldt33 when looking for cyberpunk comics. I was impressed with Tynion so after getting current with w0rldtree, I worked my way through Department of Truth, then Nice House. I’m midway through the first Something is Killing the Children Omnibus and will be ordering the second. My question is when should I order and read the House of Slaughter collections? Is there an advantage to waiting on the Second Something is Killing the Children omnibus and reading the first House of Slaughter omnibus in between? Oh, and what about House of Slaughter 6-10. Sounds like the first House of Slaughter omnibus skips them in favor of presenting a complete story arc. Should I buy them separately (or is there a collected volume) and is there a suggestion as to when in all of this I should read them. Thanks In Advance!

I’ve listened to all of the BF Gallifrey, Gallifrey Time War, and Gallifrey War Room. What are some of the BF Doctor Who stories that are directly related. Like how did Romana get back from e-space and become president? Thanks!

Can you guys think of any renegade timelords or timeladies who haven’t had an appearance recently. The Masterand the Rani have popped up, as has Onega (I feel like Rassilon falls in a separate category). I don’t think the General has been seen since he was originally locked up in War Games. The Pirate received a mention. Does anyone remember any others? I’m having a good time watching Time
And the Rani and it’s a good time. If there are any more in the canon out there that might make a decent story arc. Or, I suppose they could invent a new one, I mean all you could misplace a few, given all of time and space.

I read this book last year, but it was published in 2013. The author has won numerous awards. His recent works are fantasy and he’s won a Hugo and a British Fantasy award for one (and been a finalist something like a dozen times). But his earlier work was horror. He’s won the Shirley Jackson award twice for horror. American Elsewhere was one of these. It’s kind of a Desert Gothic/Mythos mix. Does anyone know any books like it?

 On the 23rd of November 1963 the world heard its first fully electronic piece of music, the Doctor Who theme. Australian composer Ron Grainer partially composed the theme, but its full harmonics and production were realised by

Delia Derbyshire of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. When Grainer heard the completed piece, he was amazed and asked “did I write that?” He then insisted that Derbyshire be credited as co-composer. The BBC refused and Derbyshire’s contribution went unrecognized. This state of affairs continued for fifty years. On the 23rd of November 2013 the BBC rectified this error. In the credits for the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Episode “The Day of the Doctor,” Delia Derbyshire was finally recognized as the co-composer of the theme. It’s good to see that a glass cieling that prevented recognition of one of the composers of the very first fully electronic television theme was finally shattered

One of my favorites from the old days. The chemistry between the Fourth Doc and Leela is great. The character acting on Jago and Litefoot is a lot of fun. The Great Rat? Well, errr nothing is perfect 😉
