Prize Putz

Professor John Howard of the Kollege of Komix Book Knowledge goes back, back into komix history, even beyond Action Detective Comics #1, across the pond and all the way to the late 19th century. Cody brightens at the mention of a name he vaguely recognizes. TB’s heard of Joseph Pulitzer and his prizes too, having come thisclose to claiming one for himself.

Riddle Me This, Batiuk

Cannot thank davidorth enough for climbing into the SoSF wheelhouse as Hurricane Sandy did her worst. Yours truly and family came through ok, considering! Thanks, everyone, for your thoughts and well-wishes!

Look on the bright side, kids: Batiuk spared us most of the Battle of the Bands, and Les is still off the radar. Kut to the Komix Korner, where the chullo’d one and John, lover o’ boys, are discussing the things that really matter, and by that I mean comic books! Owen earnestly raises a question about “comic” books that readers of this blog regularly ask about a certain “comic” strip. Reckon the komix geek community (and I say that with affection) will be all abuzz that Owen is prominently proffering a copy of DMZ, a “Comic” Book That Exists.

"..and why do they call Funky Winkerbean a comic if readers never laugh?"

*bashes head into a wall*

First off, hats off to an eagle eyed reader that pointed out that yesterday’s anonymous band member was actually Cody! I could not tell. Faces and ages aren’t drawn with enough consistency for me to identify all of Westview’s various Marfan’s afflicted denizens.

Thanks to graduating off 90% of the high school characters, we’re now left with these two unlikable nerdlings who just happen to be into– drumroll please… comics!

Riddle me this: How did John from Komix Korner have trouble coming up with his rent when the only thing to spend money on in Westview is pizza or comic books!?
