A Loved-Up Life Potentially Totally Annihilated
Mister Gently Benevolent unveils an evil advent calendar. Mark Evans' Victorian comic epic stars Tom Allen. From December 2012.
The inappropriately-named arbiter of all evil Mister Gently Benevolent unveils an advent calendar of evil that will culminate on Christmas day with the total destruction of the universe.
Only one man can prevent the end of everything for all time. But at a terrible terrible cost.
Is this the end for our hero Pip? Or is it curtains for the whole of creation? And does that mean Harry needn't get Pippa a Christmas present?
