‘The Man With A Thousand Names’ comes from AE Van Vogt’s second phase of writing in the 1970s. Actually, it feels more like two or three names really but you have to treat this story as part detective as Van Vogt lays in the clues as to what is going on and why. Spoilt rich […]
Finally having the opportunity to see Prey, C.D. must confess that he was taken aback. Although it wasn’t the masterpiece some have hailed it to be and there were undoubtedly certain areas the film could have done better, generally it was a very good film. Join the king of sarcastic movie reviews as we go […]

Kami are the spirits of Japanese folklore and an inukami, in particular, a dog-spirit that features in this manga series is called Yoko, a supposedly untrainable and rebellious spirit, despite her essentially benevolent nature. Keita Kawahira is a young man from a family of spirit trainers but, in time-honoured manga tradition, he’s really an idler, […]
I tend to have a slightly disruptive way of buying things from time to time, mostly driven by that looks interesting and ignore review comments. I suspect you do a similar thing with SFC reviews, if for no other reason then plain curiosity to see if we’re wrong or you have the reverse taste to […]
Let’s get into some real controversial stuff, here. Not politics and whether Biden could beat Trump in a game of Battleship, but the original O.G. Star Trek and what the best ten episodes were for its run?
Science is constant. Science Fiction isn’t constant. Hello everyone, There is always a debate as to which came first: the bird or the egg, forgetting the third answer: the reptile who laid it. After all, some animal had to lay the eggs first. Lesson learnt is not to accept that everything has only two choices, […]
Scott Shaw! rolls off this issue of ‘Retro Fan’ looking at his time when he was involved in the advertising campaign for Pebbles cereal using the Flintstones giving some insight into his job. His end comment that it was safer to eat the box than the cereal shows how sugary it was. I was mostly […]
Dr. Jack Sarfatti outlines his approach to consciousness, time travel, and other cutting-edge themes in science and physics. He also conceptualises UAP propulsion and gives insights on warp-drive architecture. The Sarfatti “weightless warp-drive” proposal uses gravitational metamaterials to construct a low-power warp-drive based on the ordinary and widely recognised concepts of relativity theory rather than […]
John Michael Godier wonders why we can’t flipping see massive alien artefacts, given that the big enigma of where all the aliens are in the wide Universe imagines ancient interstellar civilizations creating enormous megastructures that match planets – or perhaps stars – in their enormity?

‘Skyward Flight’ is the omnibus edition of three ‘Skyward’ novellas: ‘Sunreach’, ‘ReDawn’ and ‘Evershore’, all of which are related to Brandon Sanderson’s ‘Skyward Trilogy’. I didn’t realise this before starting the book but, although these novellas refer back to events in the first trilogy, I was able to follow the story without any problem. There […]
Here’s the weekly round-up of all the best new content that is fit to print, and some that probably isn’t, concerning the topic of UFOs, UAPs, and a sugary side-dollop of woo. Jeremy Rys provides an overview of the UAP Phenomenon, beginning with its historical roots and progressing to the current investigation being conducted by […]
Don’t buy ‘The Making Of The Umbrella Academy’ expecting it to be like typical ‘making of’ TV or film books. This volume is illustration heavy with a greater emphasis on the scenery than the people. Interestingly, writer/producer Gabriel Bá also contributed to the art that is used in the series. Elliott Page who plays Vanya […]
