Ian Wolf writes comedic book about comic book artists
Comedy.co.uk's Ian Wolf, who also works as a manga (Japanese comic) critic, spent lockdown writing a comic (as in "funny") book about his favourite comic (as in "graphic novel") artists, the all-woman group CLAMP, entitled CLAMPdown. Now he is searching for a publisher - by releasing one chapter per year on Twitter (@clampdownbook) until a publisher picks him up, or the entire thing is published online for free. As it stands, this would end in 2038, but it could become longer if CLAMP create any new works during that time.

Ian Wolf, On The Box, 5th June 2019Taskmaster: Series 8, Episode 4 review
Tonight's episode was a reminder that some of the best moments in Taskmaster come from the most unexpected places. Let's face it, before any of this, who thought you could get laughs by introducing a toddler to tray containing rubber ducks and a thresher shark, in order to teach it about the dangers faced by animals in their natural habitat?
