Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I thought of him today. I saw a pickup with a Calvin in cowboy gear pissing on some random logo sticker and his recluseness came to mind.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I always expected some other work from BW. Not necessarily a comic strip, but something. But if he said all he wanted to say, more power to him, and kudos for knowing when that moment was.

Okay, I read it, and I still stand by my throwing up. I don't trust DiDio to do anything right.
I do like the picture at the bottom, with Batman pimp-slapping Rorschach, though.

Ha! I'd initially clicked over and read a little bit of the article and left in disgust, but I had to go back for the picture. Well worth the return.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Any bets on who would be hackish or arrogant enough to take that on?
