Indepedent profiles Pullman
Posted by Ian on May 27, 2008 at 6:12 pm
Last Sunday’s Independent newspaper features an extensive profile of Philip Pullman by writer Cole Moreton as a preview to the DFC. The article which seems to extensively question the influence of Pullman’s father on his life and work makes for interesting reading. However, at times it appears to criticise Pullman for the actions of his father as a pilot in the Mau-Mau uprising. As one commenter on the educating alice blog remarks, journalist Moreton himself had a mixed relationship with his father and that may perhaps have influenced this piece. Whichever is the case, this is certainly worth a read. Click here to read in full.

The Adventures of John Blake
Posted by Ian on May 15, 2008 at 8:36 pm
The David Fickling Comic, a project led by Philip Pullman’s publisher David Fickling to bring the classic comic back to the mass market, is to launch on May 30th. One of the regular comic strips which is scheduled to appear in the weekly publication is to be written by Pullman and illustrated by John Aggs. Entitled ‘The Adventures of John Blake’, Pullman’s comic is about a modern-day sailor named John Blake, who criss-crosses the Pacific Ocean encountering extraordinary beasts and events from a mythical past. The illustrations are according to The Times, Japanese-influenced. Pullman’s interest and participation seems to have been secured due to his enthusiasm about comics after being brought up reading them. Pullman has also stated an active interest in more contemporary graphic novels. To read what The Times has written about the project click here. To read more about the DFC project click here.
