Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

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

But that could just be all the Wall associations.

That would be the other Englishman I named. Ralph is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (and lots of other Hunter S. Thompson). Gerald Scarfe is the Wall guy.

Ronald Searle gets metioned with them as well. Also English. I think Bill S. is American though.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Ralph Steadman, Gerald Scarfe

Don't know them by name, so I have no idea.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are they similar, Frank? I don't think I've ever seen any of Ralph's stuff, but I have him irretrievably tied to Pink Floyd.

VERY similar. And an admitted influence on Sienkewicz's more out there stylings. But the Floyd guy is Gerald Scarfe.

move out and draw fire

Superboy is (deep breath, this is a long one) the teenaged clone of Superman, artificially aged in a tube, who actually only has 50% of Superman's DNA because of some silly handwaved comic book science; the other half of his DNA comes from Lex Luthor.

So Lex and Clark have had a love child. Perfect.

Escapist: bleah.

Yeah. I liked the Gold/Colan story quite a bit, but the conceit of each issue being a collection of greatest hits and lost episodes is starting to wear thin. The submarine story was truly awful.

swamps, mardi gras, and napoleonic law

Delurking to ask if anyone else has checked this out. Tried to skim to see if anyone was talking about it, but not so good with the skimming.

I was totally prepared to be very embarrassed for her, but found myself quite impressed. I wish her the best.

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

Oh, man, she's totally adorable. And she speaks French.

And her little short film is pretty fun, and an interesting concept.

Go Chloe the Vampire Slayer!

I know, how cute is she? And she's got mad skills. I wonder if Joss has seen it?

Not got a lot to say...

In Other Comics News:

This may be old news to some, but it's big news to me; DC comics bought the rights to re-publish 2000AD stories.

Thank god DC's not attempting to do their own version of 2000AD properties. Their shot at a Judge Dredd line was abysmal, not least because they chose to re-write the continuity. Guh.
