If you’ve seen antisocially hilarious stick figures comic strips floating around the internet, you are probably familiar with Cyanide & Happiness. Lots of witty ultra violence.

For those of you who (a) still miss Warren Ellis’ weekly webcomic Freakangels, and (b) think the image of a terminal psychotic skullfucking a dolphin is a droll one, the nice folks at Avatar have finally started running Crossed: Wish You Were Here. It’s a long-form serialized story set in the world previously explored in […]

So they are rebooting The Crow franchise. Watchmen (and forthcoming Ninja Scroll) screenwriter Alex Tse seems like a reasonable choice. But Bradley Cooper? I mean, I think he is great. I loved The Hangover. But I’m just really really not seeing Bradley Cooper as Eric Draven. Bradley Cooper is a good-looking guy, of a flavor […]

If you are in Hollywood tonight, the Pop-Sequentialism: Comic Art of the Modern Age art show is the place to be. La Luz de Jesus gallery director Matt Kennedy curated it and wrote the 80 page catalog. Matt Kennedy has pretty much the most encyclopedic brain cavity I’ve ever come across, when it comes to […]

True to my word, I went to the BOOM Holiday Party at Meltdown Comics yesterday. Luminaries in attendance included writer Kim Krizan, artist Lawrence Snelly and Dave Ehrlich from Chronicle Books. Forrest Black and I spent much of the evening chatting with them about cooking. Larry, Dave, Forrest, and I are all nouveau homemakers, so […]

The Inquisitr reports that one Annette Edwards of Worcester, UK is the world record holder for breeding the largest bunny rabbit, a Continental Giant named Darius. This would be more newsworthy if Annette Edwards had not also bred Alice, the rabbit Darius took the title from now that he is longer than four foot three […]

Long ago, in a land far far from here, I lived in a punk rock group house with a lot of fans of Steve Purcells’ Sam and Max characters and their unsavory pals. Sam and Max was a hilariously antisocial comic strip. Assuming one thinks punk humor is hilarious and freelance talking animal police are […]

So the nice girl next door at Evergreen Terrace is going to be sort of taking it off for Playboy. A Playboy spokeswoman seems to indicate that Marge Simpson will only be showing implied nudity in her three page pictorial, despite having landed the cover of Playboy for all newsstand copies.
