Hello you crazy kids, just a courtesy message to let you all know I’ve joined the incredibly talented team of writers here! (woo.)

So you know we are not a bunch of robots, we take the time to give ourselves a bit of an image. So here’s a few facts about me: I’m the youngest Jedi Master in the UK and when I originally joined I was the youngest in the world (that might still be the case).

I’m also one of the youngest lords of England, in 2011 I released my first novel (Graceful Insanity) I’m a bit of a gaming fanatic and have appeared on several gaming related programs, including the Nexus. But I’m also a comic lover and, obviously, a Star Wars fanboy.

My work can be found dotted around the internet; you should google me – Custard Trout

Who to look for: If you want to tell me how brilliant I am (beat me with a stick) look out for a guy in a red trench coat with long hair and a trout tie, that’s me. I hope.

Just random musings really.  It seems that one minute you sit and wait until the next event with baited breath, each convention big and small offering you just that bit more of a different option than the last, until the last one of 2011 passes and you are all of a sudden in an expo limbo.  Do you count down the time until the first one in 2012 using your rooted Android phone?  Do you frantically search fleabay for the latest original piece from Romita Jr?  Do you vainly post all over Facebook waiting for a mention from some famous artist somewhere to satisfy your cravings?  Perhaps you simply settle down with family, move into the cellar and wait for the famous pagan festival to pass.

However you pass the time, be sure to keep popping by over the festive break for the latest and greatest news on the UK Comic Convention and Expo scene or simply send us some (nice!) abuse over Twitter.

Have a happy holiday period y'all!
