IN THIS ISSUE...
Katee Sackhoff
This month's main attractions include cover star Katee 'Starbuck' Sackhoff, who was kind enough to answer a few questions about life on the fringes of space in the best genre show this century's produced so far, Battlestar Galactica… Learn her hopes for Starbuck's future, what went wrong with Bionic Woman, and maybe a few hints about Cylon-human relations…
Pat Mills
Elsewhere in time and Death Ray, we took two writerly giants under our wing: award-winning speculative novelist Vernor Vinge, and UK comics legend, Pat Mills. "A billion years from now, the part of you that is you now is like the zygote you came from, compared to the you of that [future] time," says V.V. Meanwhile, Mills does some truth-telling regarding 2000AD, Toxic, and that unproduced Doctor Who script gathering dust in his drawer: 'The Song of the Space Whale'. Intrigued? Read on…
Doomsday
We've also got Neil Marshall, who's spent a year trashing Scotland for his nutball post-apocalypse movie, Doomsday, explains his love for the '80s, and why the film might just take us back to the golden age of action-adventure. And James Kyson Lee – an absolute gentleman – reveals all about his time as Ando on Heroes, and his voyage into the unknown with camera-fear shocker Shutter.
