Smoo #3 Preview<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last time around I asked Simon about the preview and the “1\/2” issue, and he had good reasons for both.\u00c2\u00a0 Actually, the full edition of #3 is out now, so you could just get that and skip this entirely.\u00c2\u00a0 So why am I talking about it?\u00c2\u00a0 Two reasons: I’m in a rush (it’s a little thing) and I don’t have a copy of #3 yet and wanted to remind you all that he has a new issue out.\u00c2\u00a0 Hey, but aren’t I the guy who complains about people who rush out books for cons?\u00c2\u00a0 What’s the difference between that and my rushing out a review?\u00c2\u00a0 One thing is a piece of art, the other is… whatever it is that I do here, so it lands a bit low on the hypocrisy scale.\u00c2\u00a0 Wasn’t there a comic somewhere in all this?\u00c2\u00a0 A very tiny one, yes.\u00c2\u00a0 This starts with Simon fantasizing about throwing his phone into a lake (ah, we’ve all been there), then musing on whether this is a fad or a piece of technology we’ll be stuck with for a long time, all in his own inimitable way.\u00c2\u00a0 This is only a few pages but, like I said, the whole issue is\u00c2\u00a0 out now, so you should probably just go ahead and buy that one.\u00c2\u00a0 How do I know that it’s worth it?\u00c2\u00a0 Well, this is a great little story, and it’s not like he’s done anything awful yet, so let’s call it a leap of faith.<\/p>\n
