Ask Bizarre
Having acted as launch publisher of Bizarre magazine in 1997, Mike edited the mag’s web-based ‘Ask Bizarre’ column from 1998-2000. Billed as ‘The net’s frankest Q&A’, the column fearlessly (or foolishly) promised to answer readers’ queries about everything from far-side fetishes to the recipe for Tolcarne biscuits. Mike handled most of the history queries on what became a highly popular and occasionally acclaimed site.
