Billy Dare to the Rescue!
If Spielberg / Jackson wanted to make a movie about Tintin, but with the violence pumped up, they should have come to me about Billy Dare. He's a somewhat similar character, but he takes a bit more… direct approach.
Film rights currently available.
THE FIRST BILLY DARE COMIC:
I got a million of 'em.

THIS WEEK’S COMIC: DOOMED TO REPEAT
Paul Krugman's blog post "History Roolz," posted today at 10:17 AM, has an eerie thematic similarity to this week's comic, posted today at 1:00 PM (but completed and submitted over two days ago).
He even ends his column with a reference to the "condemned to repeat" history line — I titled my comic "Doomed to Repeat" (mine is the less accurate reference, but I liked it).
Could make for an awkward moment by the punchbowl at the New York Times / Boing Boing Christmas Party this year.

Another great comics reprint book
"Sugar & Spike" was a comic book by Sheldon Mayer that started in the 1950s, about two toddlers whose babytalk was fully understandable to each other, but sounded like gibberish to adults. (This device was later used in the cartoon series "Rugrats.")
It was a great comic book that I remember well from when I was a kid in the 1970s. It's seldom seen any reprintings, so it's great to see this released. But DC gave it the full prestige Archives treatment, so the cover price is $59.99. But I wish they had found a way to make it more popularly priced (by making it softcover, for example) so that kids, and not just adult-nerd-collectors could enjoy it.
You can buy it here.

Lost Works of a Master
Can't wait to read this.
Carl Barks was one of the greatest cartoonists ever, famous for his revered Donald Duck comic books. But he also did some obscure comics using the MGM cartoon characters, and they're now available in this new book.

OUR MAN IN WASHINGTON: I SEE YOU
Michiko Kakutani's review of Ron Suskind's book "Confidence Men," including this passage,
"Mr. Geithner — whom one top banker quoted in these pages refers to as 'our man in Washington' for helping avert more systemic changes affecting Wall Street — denies that he obstructed or slow-walked any presidential directive…."
reminded me of this comic from early last year, when "Avatar" was all the rage…
