Review: Biggol (CPE Books)
The first book from Josh (Glorious Wrestling Alliance) Hicks’ new venture CPE Books, is Biggol, a fantastic documentary comic from his long time table mate Ioan Morris. Biggol tells the story of a fictitious fantasy TV program in the 1960s and reads like a TV documentary with talking heads, interviews and flashbacks. It’s steeped in a sense of 1960s kitsch and low budget silliness, not the high polish of today’s TV drama, and is a chance for Ioan to tell a series of meticulously crafted sketches about aspirational TV execs, struggling actors and obsessive fans.
It’s all done in the meticulous and analytical style we have seen in Ioan’s previous work like Best Imitation of Myself. His pages often use a rigid 6 panel structure, or rely on very strongly regimented layouts, and this goes really well with his very precise line work. It’s a wonderfully constructed set of character studies and Ioan builds the world of Biggol superbly. It has the kind of nostalgic charm of something like Garth Merenghi’s Dark Place, however it is very firmly rooted in the 1960s time period. As such there is a kind of innocence and naivety about the whole thing: from the female TV producer trying to make her name in the sexist world of male TV execs; to the ageing theatre actor looking for one last great hurrah on TV (at a time when this was definitely a step down). There is also a look at the early days of fandom with the Biggol fan club torn apart by infighting and arguing, but without it all happening online.
Biggol is a wonderfully uncynical read that revels in it’s own unique brand of quirky nostalgia and vintage eccentricity. This first issue also feels like it is only just scratching the surface of this wonderful world and so we hope this is the start of a long term ongoing series for Ioan. (In fact since we wrote this review issue #2 has been released!)

Lions take over at their own 37 after a good opening
drive. Jones pushes into the end zone from one
yard out and the Lions find themselves at an early deficit.
Vikings get the ball again and a short field.
Expected points added per play With that as a background, the Lions
entered the season with some of the shortest odds to win the Super Bowl.
Those represent two of the three 12-win seasons in franchise history.
“Any time [Goff] isn’t able to step into the throw, it’s gonna be hard for him,” Campbell said.
Goff, who was hit eight times, said the turnovers were “something we’ve been really good at all year, and it sucks that it reared its head today. And then, on the first play of the fourth quarter, a third straight Detroit series ended via turnover.
In their devastating Week 16 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, with their season on the line, the Lions started former undrafted rookie Kingsley Eguakun at center with Glasgow out. The offense has been better with Campbell calling plays than it was with Morton calling plays, but still not up to the level it was when Johnson was running plays. Before they can put the pieces back together, the 2025 Lions will finish their season at Chicago next weekend (date and time to be determined) for a season-ending battle with Ben Johnson’s first-place Bears. Detroit’s eight second-half drives lasted an average of 4.3 plays, in part because of the turnovers, but also because Detroit couldn’t move the ball even when it wasn’t being taken away. It sucks,” said offensive tackle Dan Skipper, who started in place of Decker.
Wide receiver Jordan Addison took an end-around on second-and-10 and raced up the sideline for
a 65-yard touchdown that effectively finished the Lions’ season.

Bond uses the Aston to finagle a romantic evening with Dmitrios’ spurned wife,
Solange, to get information about her husband. Bond meets
Dmitrios and plays poker with him, winning his Aston Martin DB5 in the process.
Bond examines the man’s messages briefly, seeing one with an American phone number
and the word “ellipsis.” Bond keeps the phone. Carter, who is inexperienced, is exposed after Mollaka gets a cell phone call
and the terrorist bolts from the scene.
▶ Bond follows the ‘Ellipsis’ trail to ‘Miami’.
▶ Although Bond is informed that the home of Dimitrios, owner of the smart 1964
Aston Martin, is “just up the beach” – it isn’t. You can visit the historic library, which is
open daily (admission charge). “Christ, I miss the Cold War… After Bond kills Mollaka, M (Judi Dench) gets a dressing down from her superiors in the Committee Room at the ‘House of Commons’. It is now part of a military base.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is needed to get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100 sure. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I genuinely enjoy looking at on this internet site, it has great blog posts. “Literature is the orchestration of platitudes.” by Thornton.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say that you’ve done a fantastic job with this. In addition, the blog loads very fast for me on Opera. Superb Blog!
