I was thinking a few thousand for a viable long term colony, but that’s not really based on anything, it’s just a guess. (did a quick search after I typed this & apparently some researchers now think at least 5000 - 10,000 is needed for an animal population, but not sure how that converts to humans on Mars) https://con…

Minor trivia sidenote, but the Githyanki were created by Charles Stross for White Dwarf magazine. (doesn’t really matter, I was just slightly surprised when I found out)

I think he might’ve been slightly misquoted in the interview...

Ok fair enough. (I might be wrong, but I think the shadow elves are the children of a group of elves that survived a cataclysm in the far, far distant past of their world thousands and thousands of years ago by going underground, but now want to return to the surface, but when they tried the surface elves tried to…

Like the Shadow Elves from the Becmi D&D Mystara setting?

Dreams past & his desires catching up to him & the consequences of that.

Gaiman has said s1 will be the first two books/16 issues but with the occasional change, so I’d guess maybe 4 eps for Preludes & Nocturnes & 5 for A Game Of You, which’d leave them with one ep to fit The Sound Of Her Wings & the issue that introduced Nada (unless he’s moved that to s2 just before Seasons of Mists?) htt…

Definitely that & it also reminded me a lot of parts of Fallout 4 were it just keeps repeating the same few bits of dialogue & playing the same 2 or 3 songs over & over (& over) again interminably cause I’m exploring/doing random quests & haven’t advanced the plot.

Also didn’t Marvel buy Malibu Comics several years before the Men in Black film came out, so isn’t MIB technically a Marvel film?

Yup. Same with Peter Milligan & Shade the Changing Man, Alan Moore & Swamp Thing or Grant Morrison on Animal Man & The Doom Patrol.

You’re right, Gaiman doesn’t own Sandman or any or the characters & has said as much several times whenever it comes up.

Gaiman does not own Sandman & has said so several times.

You missed the Spider-Man Questprobe text adventure from 1984.

Have you read the Morrison run*? It got a bit dark at points, especially near the end. (then it got really weird with Rebis giving birth to hirself on the moon)

I agree, but I draw the line at a different (& equally valid) earlier point so I’m going with Chuckie Egg, Manic Miner & Pitfall.

I know, I watched it on Dave when it was originally on (well apart from a few eps when they were previewing it a week early on UKTV Play), I was just saying *I think* most of the eps are up on YT for people in the US, but I can’t be 100% sure cause they’re blocked for me in the UK & the Taskmaster YT page doesn’t seem…

I can’t check for every episode cause the the full yt eps are blocked in the UK, but at least S1 & s4 are on Youtube S1: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRWvNQVqAeWK_LFdLCOF5zT351eUyYozM S4 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRWvNQVqAeWLMubhTgw2xQKlRWKq-oFUf

Red Skies at morning... Ragnarok.
Red Skies at night... Ragnarok.

Like that History Channel mockumentary a few years ago?

NO.
