Dane Guthrum, 5 May 878.
I’m greatly enjoying this Vikes season even if it doesn’t end with a title, which it probably won’t.
2025 though? We’re taking that shit.

"Did you hear about the Western Massachussetts lesbian bar?" You bolt awake in the fens of Wessex. You are not online. It is 875 CE. You are the general Guthrum, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Wessex must burn.

Again: it's VERY possible I just can't ship out comics anymore real soon. If you want the original edition of Power Nap, you better get it before it's gone forever.

Decorated Viking stirrup* found in the #RiverAvon at #Chippenham, now in the town museum. Chip is where Guthrum the Dane surprised Alfred of Wessex in 878, with legendary consequences. #FindsFriday
*If this isn't a what3words reference, it should be. Or a racehorse name.

Anglo-Saxon/Viking project:
My Saxon army should arrive overmorrow and I’m very excited to get started on the project.
I’m going to centre the project around Alfred, King of Wessex (below left) and the Danish Warlord Guthrum, King of East Anglia (below right).
Should be fun.

A coin of Aethelred II (Viking leader Guthrum) of East Anglia, found near Thetford, Norfolk (PAS-D68238). The first silver coin minted by a Scandinavian ruler in Britain, this is first item declared Treasure under the new ‘significance-based’ definition. Hopefully Norwich Castle Museum will acquire.

The local Langport Mummers told me that Guthrum was baptised at Aller church because “Aller is better than Valhalla”. It could be true … #Alfred #HeathenArmy #Vikings
