Update for 7/6/07
July 6, 2007New reviews for two great comics to end the week: Only Skin #1 by Sean Ford and Every Girl Is The End Of The World For Me by Jeffrey Brown. I’ve tried this before as a sort of informal plea, but I’m going to beg again, even if it pains me to do it. I’m taking some time off this summer, to work on the website and a number of other things, but money is going to be a serious issue by the end of the month. Specifically, I’ll be about $150 short. I’ve seen blogs do this from time to time, so why not me: I’m doing a “fundraiser” until the end of the month. I’ll post weekly updates as to whether or not that dollar total has changed. Don’t feel obligated; there’s bound to be a plasma center or pawn shop around here somewhere, I won’t end up homeless at the end of the month if nobody buys a damned thing. But if you ever wanted to show your appreciaton for the site and get a lot of great comics to boot, now would be the perfect time. Like I said before, I should be able to get orders out in a hurry after I get them, and for the month, I’ll throw in a free comic with any order. And if you like buttons, I get all kinds of buttons from comic people, say the word and I’ll throw some of those in as well. Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

Update for 6/22/07
June 22, 2007New reviews for The Haunt of Horace #1 by Ken Henson & Mark O’Neill and The Snowman, The Bananaman, The Parking Robot and Me by Christopher Davis. I wanted to make something clear, awkward as it for me to do so. I’m taking some time off for the summer to work on a few things, as I mentioned here a few weeks back. Things are going swimmingly so far, thanks for asking, but the thing is that money is going to be more and more of an issue as the weeks fly by. So, if you’ve ever thought about ordering comics from me but something held you back, the next few months would be an absolutely wonderful time for you to do so. For most of the summer (unless indicated on this page) I’m going to be around town with free time on my hands, so any order that is sent to me will be sent out either the next day or possibly even that day, if it’s sent early enough in the day. Obviously, I haven’t been doing the site for the money (or I would have stopped years ago), but every little bit is going to help a lot over the next few months, and there should be plenty of other new comics coming for the store to go with the new stuff I already got this past week. OK, now I feel dirty for talking about money so much. Have a good weekend everybody!

Cornwell, Chris – Spunj Baahb
June 12, 2007
Spunj Baahb
OK, granted, it’s often bad to judge a book by its cover, but if you can look at that beautiful thing up there and not want to have this immediately, there’s not a whole lot I can say to talk you into it. This is the mostly silent tale of a… creature that looks more than a little bit like a famous cartoon character, seen on every piece of merchandise imaginable over the last five years or so. This creature is riding another underwater beast, but when the riding beast trips, throwing Spunj Baahb off, it sets off a sequence of events with creatures higher and higher up the food chain systematically asserting their will. As always, it’s dangerous for me to venture too far into interpreting exactly what’s happening in these wordless books, but it’s a gorgeous, thoroughly haunting experience, with more than a few of the panels lodged in my brain. This was $4 or $5 at SPACE, find it, buy it, love it, and show it to your young child, niece or nephew if you want this opinion of a popular cartoon character forever altered.
