Aspirational writer & artist, gamer, daydreamer, occasional Expo attendee and a Buzzer since April 2011. I write about the things I love and as such, many of the topics I cover are related to Asia, in particular Japanese and South Korean music, drama and Asian cinema. Thank you for stopping by; I hope you continue to support MCM Buzz!
Jenny Brundle (AKA The Rundle)
“Konnichiwa! I’m a creative writing student living and studying in Bath. Inbetween my studies, I work at a Little Cinema and for a video game shop. When I get some free time I like to catch up on sleep, curse at my XBOX, draw manga, watch films and anime. Sometimes I can be found in coffee shops scribbling down ideas, sketching or pouring over a thick fantasy book, whilst sipping a cappucino. I’m blonde, I sing, I won’t stop smiling and love to cosplay.”
Steve Collier
When Steve saw Jurassic Park at the age of seven he realised his love of film and, as a kid with an overactive imagination, vivid, fantastical stories spilled out onto the page and his love of writing was born. Now, Steve pursues writing in the form of screenplays and comic books. As well as producing short films and filming gigs in London, Steve created Japan Comic Aid- a charitable project which aims to raise funds for for those affected by the Great Eastern Earthquake of Japan in 2011. He currently resides in Aylesbury where he writes, works and lives happily with his girlfriend. Steve enjoys films (particularly those of Spielberg), gaming (in his opinion Sonic has never been as good since the 16bit days), manga (Death Note being his favourite), music (punk, hardcore, ska) and coffee (two brown sugars and cream). You can follow him on Twitter @stevemcollier in a non-creepy way.

Zoe Bond
I am a five foot five tall ape descendant from Birmingham, and dedicated Whovian, Red Dwarfer, professional Googler and film fanatic. I appreciate classic Hollywood, British film, Charlie Chaplin and the artistic value of seventies Doctor Who. I was brought up on seventies and eighties sitcoms and as a result I am afflicted with an odd sense of humour and addicted to vintage TV. I am MCM Buzz’s film and television news reporter as well as reviewer for anything made in Britain. In my opinion there is no better channel than Dave, no better Broadcasting company than the BBC and no better Doctor than Tom Baker.
Garry McConnachie
A Scots-based film writer & dedicated movie fan who’s just as comfortable watching B-movie horror as I am watching foreign art films. Cite American History X as my top film of all time, followed by Stand By Me. If it’s movie-related, I’ll be there. Willing to give my opinion on any film. Just as able to accept the opinions of others when they differ from mine.
Kimi Chan (AKA KPOPKIMI)
I’m a Cosplayer of large scale costumes, i am in love with Asian Culture especially Korean and japanese. I love all kinds or Art and Music, but have a obsession for Kpop (ultra fan of Super Junior) and i enjoy being creative wether its writing, artwork, costuming, or organising.
Sophie Chipchase
Sophira-lou AKA Sophie Chipchase has been working with MCM Buzz Manga with us and is super excited about being a part of the project. Drawing is a big part of my life and I could imagine it being a part of my career. I’ve loved working on this project and being a part of the MCM team. I’m currently studying at Bolton university and am in my third year of animation and illustration, the course is fun and slowly leading me towards my career. I hope you guys will enjoy reading the Manga as much I’ve enjoyed drawing It.
Sayem Ahmed
Sayem Ahmed is a freelance game critic and film editor. For MCM Buzz, he mainly deals with game reviews and features. His favourite genre of games is RPG and is a self confessed technology nut! In his spare time he makes short films and can usually be found tweeting @sayemisawesome. He also rather enjoys going to parks and dressing up as a tinfoil robot.
Kye Sutton
I’ve been writing for MCM Buzz for about a year now on the Gaming and TV sections of the site. As a massive geek and someone that knows how to spell, writing seemed to be a smart and enjoyable thing to do. I’m also currently studying Journalism at university, so hopefully this could become a full time thing!
When not writing about the latest games and goings on of the TV world, I enjoy playing the very things I write about. I’ve owned a few consoles over the years, but more recently I’ve been glued to my Xbox 360 the most. I’ll play anything from Pokemon to Forza and I’m not fussy about things like achievements, in fact I’ll mostly be found on LIVE destroying people on Call of Duty!
