Since January you may have noticed a new, cheeky addition to the puzzles page – a geektastic, scientific comic strip for all to enjoy! Replacing our ‘Through the lens’ section, the comic strip provides a humorous outlet for topical issues facing scientists today, drawn by a different illustrator each month.

I am proud to present the very first comic strip below, which was drawn by the talented Nik Papageorgiou, whom some of you may recognise from The Upturned Microscope

— The Upturned Microscope – January issue

Of course, I’m not forgetting all those loyal ‘Through the lens’ fans out there, have no fear, this has now become a nomadic, full-page spread within the magazine – enabling the beautiful, eye-catching imagery to be displayed in all its glory! You can also view the collection of ‘Through the lens’ images online

I hope you enjoy the new look and, as always, do let us know what you think by leaving any comments below.
