Ciarán Dowd: Don Rodolfo (2018)

The life and times of Don Rodolfo Martini Toyota, the World’s greatest Spanish/Irish swordsman wearing eyeliner… where on earth are we supposed to start with this? It turns out that the answer to that excellent question is quite obviously -... Continue Reading →

Ella Woods: Wing Defence (2018)

You ever wonder how many souls ended up in the same twisted circus tent as Ella Woods for the same delusional reasons I did? The story begins with me emerging from a soul-crushing breakfast experience at the godforsaken 'Hemma,' a... Continue Reading →
