Comic Books
Hi Rox, nice thread!
For me, it has to be the comic books. I've read them off and on since I was a kid. Despite the fact that there are so many intellectually fulfilling mature readers comics out there (Neil Gaiman's The Sandman or Art Spiegelman's Maus for example), I've never been quite able to shake off my love of super-heroes.
Right now I'm loving DC's Blackest Night crossover; what could be better than lame-o superdudes hitting each other? ZOMBIE lame-o superdudes hitting each other! Pure class.
There have been some very embarrassing admissions on the musical front (Dido?! For shame Onifre!), so here's mine. A classic slice of Eighties cheese.
At least no-one has admitted to liking James Blunt.

Mitch Benn on James Blunt
Any Blunt haters out there might find this therapeutic.
Mitch Benn, incidentally, is well worth seeing live. The songs are tight and he has a great rapport with the audience.

Re: Comic Books
Hi RAZD,
That's pretty cool. I'm not sure I like the anime look of the characters, but the draughtsmanship on the backgrounds is very impressive, especially for a free comic.
On a related note, I have you to thank for turning me onto the excellent and much missed Cectic comic strips. Great stuff.

Re: Comic Books
It is a shame about Cectic. Rudi got new job I think and just didn't have the time to produce a regular comic any more. More at Comics by Rudism - Cectic Just scroll down a bit.
Calamities of Nature is great. I bet this one will appeal to you...
