* The Hipster Dad looks at Esperanza, a 2011 Love and Rockets paperback.
* If you're in or near Ohio, drop by Tony Isabella's comic book garage sale next weekend. I'm starting to believe his accumulation of comics stuff is as vast as he's always said.
* Galaxy Flashbacks: With James Kochalka's American Elf Vol.4 now available, here's my 2005 interview with the cartoonist/musician. The awesome new Marie Severin tribute book from TwoMorrows includes a photo of Marie and Joe Sinnott from a 2000 convention in White Plains, New York. "Hey, I was at that show," I thought to myself. Here's what I had to say about it a couple days later. With writer Sean T. Collins talking about Batman in Rolling Stone this week, here's a flashback to 2004, when he wrote for Comic Book Galaxy about some of the comics he was reading that summer.
* Pre-Galaxy Flashbacks: I think this is the first comic book review I ever wrote, from 1999: Hulk #1 by Byrne and Garney. Sorry about the font colour, not sure what's up with that.
* Uncomics: Seth Godin solves a problem Twitter will someday face in the difficult challenge of media alignment. Here are some good Star Trek novels no longer canonical because of later developments in the movies and various TV series. Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens's Federation is a huge favourite of mine. They, along with Peter David, are the only Star Trek authors who seem able to capture the voices of all the characters naturally and with wit and flair, every time they write them. (Including the "Shatnerverse" novels, since Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens ghost wrote those.)
* eBay: Take my Darwyn Cooke comics, please.
It is as vast as I've said. You would shit Mylar if you saw the Fortress of Storage. :)
