OK that's freakin' hysterical. I love how it's not a DIRE WARNING!!!!
I'm just sorry we were denied a Goth Jughead.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I thought that was Jughead with Archie, sans his trademark hat. Or is that some other guy?

That was Reggie.

Well, since you went and brought up Archie, there's also this.

Genius! Though I too was hoping for a panel of roaches going up the wall.

Every time I read through it, I'm slightly disappointed they don't smoke some fags and play some pool, pretend they never went to school.

Art Crawl!!!
Publisher's Weekly says that there are going to be new Love and Rockets stories. (I'm not sure if this is actually news to any Love and Rockets fans.)

A 112 page annual?
Considering one of the problems they always had before was the long gaps between issues, I wonder how this is going to help their circulation.
But I will be lined up for this annual event. It should be a summer annual, though, dammit! So you can laze around on long summer days reading the same comic for more than 10 minutes.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I mentioned something like that a while ago on the thread. Basically, the comic book format is dying; publishers like Fantagraphics are moving entirely to the trade paperback (or hardcover) format. Top Shelf is starting to experiment with web comics.
