I saw him talk once in an old surgical theatre in London somewhere - might have been here https://oldoperatingtheatre.com/
Was a great small venue and I don't remember much about it. But he was cool. And old even then!

There is a great interview on that podcast with Mr Moorcock: https://breakfastintheruins.com/202...-2025-episode-100-featuring-michael-moorcock/

Moorcock wrote one of my favourite stories.

This:
Though I seem to recall a book he wrote about cities on wheels that burned peat as fuel and moved across the marshlands, is that a thing or did I dream that?

Starts off great then clearly he dropped acid and it goes bonkers. I prefer the start but it is the overall concept I like.

.... That cover. The skelly on the bottom is giving me cover of wd65 Chris achilleos vibes...(and like another on wd58.). Off topic, sorry! 🙏

Oh wow, great spot! 😂Resemblance to Klaus Kinski as Aguirre is somewhat noticeable. Sorry for off-topic... carry on.

.... And no wonder I thought that von bek cover looked similar, it's part of a bigger scene by achilleos (!), the other bit being the WD cover...

That shield is fantastic. I especially like the eye. Although to this day I have never worked out how JB did such small checks on the shield rims. I was kind of hoping it wasn't talent and patience in equal measure as I have neither really! Great paint job on a wonderful figure.

That podcast is mad. Morecambe! (I know Silverdale very well)...where Moorcock + family nearly got caught in that tidal bore. Never knew he had a connection to the area. And his mind as sharp as anything in his mid 80's...
... Also he mentions Bob Haberfield doing his book covers ♥️... https://bobhaberfield.com/
