Bad Rat has won a number of awards, including Best Limited Series/Arc from the Comics Creaturs Guild of Great Britain and it has been selected for inclusion in the Beatrix Potter collection at the Victoria and Albert Musuem in London.It isn't only succeeding on artistic merit, as it's being used as resource material in a number of child abuse centres. The artwork is also being featuredin an Italian art exhibition. All four isses will be collected into a graphic novel by Dark Horse in October, but it's possible the UK collected edition may be out before then. Watch this space for news... [: you follow Sandman you'll have seen Bryan's artwork on many occasions, including the marriage of Orpheus and Euridyce in the Sandman annual. There won't be any more stories with Dream himself after the Sandman comic finishes, but The Dreaming will continue as a Comic and Bryan is currently working ona story arc which will be the secondin the series. This features some of the familiar Dreaming characters (although none of the Endless), but it's mainly about the new characters it introduces and their situation. Bryan describes it as a "nice subversion of the romance genre, using romantic stereotypes." The story doesn't have firm title yet; suggestions rejected by DC so far include Pawn Hearts (from the Van der Graf Generator album) and Lost Hearts. Bryan's current favourite is Weird Romance. - Mary Branscombe ue Colin Greenland p::: animal Colin Greenland has been hard at work recently.

ee The Radisson Edwardian — not in the middle of nowhere!

Evolution will be at the luxurious, 5 star Radisson Edwardian Hotel at Heathrow, London. But no matter how good the 'con, we know you won't want to stay in it all weekend and isn't Heathrow an isolated outpost in the back of beyond? Not at all — we sent our intrepid reporter (and Site Liaison), Pat McMurray, out with a One Day Travelcard to investigate...

er timeI visit the Radisson, I’m really impressed.It’s beautifully decorated and well maintained. It has lots of function space of all shapes and sizes. It has some wonderful playing space — a beautiful swimming pool with two jacuzzis and a conservatory terrace opening onte one of the nice bars and restaurants and — for when you've Look finished indulging -— a health club.

The White Hart is more of a family pub than The Wheatsheaf and the food is similar in price and range to The Pheasant, but The White Hart is about twice the size of the Pheasant. All this is within half a mile of the Radisson Edwardian without having to cross any major roads. We then did a quick tour of Sipson, which is a little further away, on the east side of the hotel (Harlington is to the west). Sipson has three pubs, again country pubs with beer and food and we 4.
