Every day, from now until Christmas, the mad people at Madman will be announcing a new title for us to look forward to in the new year. Today's title announcement is....

#7 – SILVER SPOON

This coming-of-age story follows Yugo Hachiken, a high school student who decides to attend ‘Ezono’ - the Oezo Agricultural High School - to escape the academic pressures at his preparatory school back in Sapporo. But, Yugo quickly realizes that things are just not that simple, and is forced to face whole new set of hurdles at Ezono. 

Yugo begins to feel a different kind of pressure as he comes to deal with new classmates who, compared to him, all have a much clearer view of what they want for their futures. Over the course of the series, Yugo will grow, both physically and mentally as he faces all the challenges the Ezono puts in his way

Created by Hiromu Arakawa, the SILVER SPOON manga has been awarded both the 5th Manga Taisho Award and the 58th Shogakukan Manga Award and has sold over 7.5 million copies in Japan. 

SILVER SPOON will be available on DVD in late 2014.

Reese commits fully and with real vigour and we have seen this over and over again in roles like Legally Blonde  (the original is still so fun), Walk the line , Vanity Fair and more. Recently the critically-acclaimed and Emmy award winning TV series Big Little Lies which is sensational, as well as her role in it. In Home Again Reese has returned to the romantic comedy genre which she has championed in her career many times and sadly, to some questionable results. I know Sweet Home Alabama  is a favourite among many but sadly it did not ignite me. I am quite fond of Just Like heaven  with Mark Ruffalo (don’t judge) which I

Today I have the pleasure of speaking to writer Tom Taylor and artist James Brouwer, creators of my favourite book of recent time , The Deep: Here be Dragons.  In case you haven't heard, The Deep: Here be Dragons is the Aurealis award winning graphic novel from Aussie duo, Tom Taylor and James Brouwer, and the patriotic streak doesn't end there. This book is beautifully presented by the good folks at the independent Aussie comics company, Gestalt. Follow on after the jump and not only will you get an interview with some of Australia's best and brightest but you will get a look at some interior art and an EXCLUSIVE look at an all new piece of art from the forthcoming VOLUME 2, The Vanishing Island. Intriguing?
