WOW: join in the celebration of a new, modern revamp of a grand old DC superhero favorite from some of Britain’s finest! We’re all getting laid in this one, gang!
Man, I used to get a break on holiday weekends. Why didn’t they think of me?

No, really, you should go read Ryan Holmberg’s column first. Did you? Okay, I’ve got Danes.
Lord, what day is it? This column’s still good, right? I mean good as in ‘useful,’ naturally.
On one hand, I do not have Jonathan Lethem in this column. But on the other, I’ve got an explosion of Japanese comics from New York City! Wait, why is my hand exploding? That’s terrible.
Prepare yourself for journeys to the past and future, where maximum love and minimal savings await!
Winter is coming, my friends, as are spoilers for recent zombie-like funnies.
The best in delicate French cartooning of the 1960s (not pictured) is waiting for you inside! Provided you have money! But not much!!

A few words about the human element in manufactured fun.
This week a secret co-writer joins me in discussing Chantal Montellier, Robert Crumb, and the disease of the instincts. Plus, new and old books, with and without pictures.

The return of a very special comic book serial, along with odd revivals and vintage kids.
Unless he gets either of today’s Spotlight Picks; then he’s gonna have to stay in the hole for a month to save.
I included my finder’s fee in the above total, just so you know.
A brief one this week, as reprints issue, revamps form, and my apartment gradually reheats.
I AM TOTALLY NOT A PURITAN, GOSH! Naked fairies and obscure publishing in this one, make sure you’re not at the pulpit.
Racing into the new year with a barrel full of picks and pistol’s worth of… brief introductory material!
