"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

So I finally read Global Frequency, and it was awesome.

It surely is. You should go for PLANETARY next if you haven't already, now that the series is (finally) complete. The last book will be out in the next month or so.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Actually, I'll be doing Transmetropolitan soon, I think. Before May.

Right now, I'm going to read Kabuki, by David Mack.

That's a lot. I've been daunted by the sheer volume, so I never started it (though that problem hasn't stopped me from starting on Y the Last Man, but in that case I'm borrowing it from my brother who's bought the whole series).

60 issues? That's not a lot! In comparison to, say, fucking Hellblazer. I'll be borrowing the whole thing from my friend Seanan anyway. It's the series I keep getting recommended when I mention Ellis, and her zombie political thriller that comes out in May has some Transmet influence, and apparently I may hang out with Ellis at Comic-Con, so I figure I should read it before then.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Tep, I'd take a demonoid invite if you still have 'em.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Actually, I'll be doing Transmetropolitan soon, I think. Before May.

My favorite comic of all time. Bar none.

OK, I consider that a helluva recommendation. What do you think of the other Ellis work you've read (in terms of comparison)?
