Detective Chimp:

Peanut Putter and Jeremy and Sock Monkey are so goddamned awesome. I thank you for pointing them out. My favorite Sock Monkey is where he attempts suicide and can't because he is a sock monkey.

Continuity is a dream. It is nearly unattainable. But it is nice when they at least try to give a shit about fans.

American Elf is heartwarming every single day. My heart OVERHEATS.

But being a monkey without civil rights and being unable to stand as a juridical person, he couldn't get paid, and when the public began to forget him, he became an alcoholic.


Yeah, I wrote THAT country song.

Wait... is that actually a part of the comics or not? There's no discussion page or anything so I guess someone could have snuck it in for fun.
Damnit Wiki, why hast thou betrayed me.

Then you should check out Y: The Last Man, if you mean proper comic books. I need to track down the second TPB of this, as the first was great.
100 Bullets is pretty cool. And I have to say, I was very impressed by Rising Stars, though I can't find the second TPB of that either.

I am contemplating getting my mother the complete Calvin and Hobbes for christmas...

Oh, Y is amazing. Definitely pick it up.
Dorkiest moment of my life. Last night, I pulled up fundrace.org to see if I could find out who my crazy blinged-out relatives gave money to; no such luck, but then I searched my neighborhood.
I live .34 miles from Dr. Barry Allen, a research scientist at Columbia University. He gave $250 to the RNC. I feel I should warn him, though, lest he DIE AT THE HANDS OF THE ANTI-MONITOR!

FABLES!

is anyone reading fables?! Fables is so hardcore awesome.

It is like being massaged by a beautiful sexy lady as another beautiful sexy lady feeds you your favorite food and your favorite music is on and the sky is blue and it's very warm and all you can think about is how awesome and beautiful the world is.

Read it and you will feel the beauty and wonder of looking at the world through Philippe's eyes... Or Lyle's... i think he probably thinks good things about the world too.

Fables is totally awesome and rad. Both at once.

WARNING: Although Bill Willingham writes a rad and awesome book with Fables, do not assume that this always applies. His run on Robin is not so good. But Fables? Rawesomed.
