Northlanders will be a monthly series coming out in December from Vertigo (DC's interesting/adult but not porn line). Bernard Cornwall writes some amazing accurate historical fiction about the Viking saxon era and the Napoleonic wars(the Sharpe series). He also did a great couple books about the ejnglish longbowmaen at Crecy and the US civil war. I also get a zombie comic called "the Walking Dead" which is much better than 99% of other zombie stuff which other than WWZ I don't much like.

ZULU is an awesome movie and a fascinating time in history. I have been shopping around for a Martini Henry ever since seeing it. You don't need a licence for one even in Canada(yet). As a wounded soldier in the Zulu wars I would much rather be treated by the Zulu witch doctor ,at least they had anaesthetic.
