Comics ARE Good

It’s very easy to be down on comics. There are so many crappy ones. There are crappy ones made, at least in part, by people whose work you normally really admire. Like that DC 0 thing, Jesus, what a piece of crap! And, yeah, it’s easy to throw a dart at a shop and have […]

So I’m sitting in the Haunted Bookshop writing this, and Michael Chabon, who wrote The Amazing Adventures of Cavelier and Clay was just standing right behind me, looking through the Literary Biography section. We had, of course, been talking about him not half an hour before.
This is, like, the third most surprising thing that’s happened […]

5/2 - Selective Selleck Reviews… Iron Man!
