This comic is just a joy! Well written, lovely art and just pure escapist entertainment. Whoever is responsible for this remarkable comic and the concept of 'going back to basics' should be lauded. This (its sister publication too) and the Ghost Machine titles have mended my broken marriage with comics. Thank you.
