That's All, Folks!
Well, that's it. I can officially retire from comic book collecting, because I did it. I FUCKIN DID IT:
I finally completed my set of Air Pirates Funnies.
Yes, I know about Dan O'Neill's Comics and Stories, and the Tortoise and the Hare, and Dirty Duck, and the Air Pirates newspaper, but I don't care. Like Ash Katchum, I caught them all.
Stay tuned for this blog's new focus: Collecting Loungefly backpacks.

Welcome To The Party, Pal
A member of the Bubbles Forum recently reminded me of Tyler Hutchinson's "Die Homer."
The elevator pitch is "Die Hard but with cartoon characters I can draw from memory," and as you can see, it delivers:
If anybody stumbles on a printed copy of this let me know, because I need to own this comic.

Mystery Solved
Since I was like 3 years old I have been haunted by this stupid cartoon
Which in my little kid memory I had mixed up with this disco Disney thing
All these years I thought it was some kinda churchy anti-drug propaganda but it turns out it’s just Canadian.

Now that this early incarnation of The Cult is back, I hope they use their old logo on the t-shirts.

Marvel to Publish Uncle $crooge Comic
Eh, I don't know. I like Jason Aaron OK but I don't know that he'd be my first pick for this type of thing. Hope I'm wrong!

Welcome Foolish Reader
Well, your ol' pal Wimbledon Green has done it again! After nearly 20 years, I have finally completed my collection of all seven issues of the SLG Haunted Mansion series, at last scoring the elusive issue #4.
Now that I have it in my hot little hands, I can see why this issue was so hard to find at a reasonable price: every story is drawn by a good artist!
You've got Lenore's Roman Dirge, Serenity Rose creator Aaron Alexovitch, the spooktackular Drew Rausch- this is a murderer's row of goth comics...literally.
Well, now that my collection is complete I can finally relax and rest in peace. Muah ha ha ha ha
