HYPEY

I don't do this often, and I won't "ping" this entry to show up in Comic Weblog Updates or anything, as it's so brief, but just wanted to point out that because of some technical difficulties last week, my usual Friday BREAKDOWNS column at Comic Book Galaxy didn't go up until last Tuesday, but we should be on schedule again this Friday (today) with the latest. I think it's a good-un', with some rather lengthy reviews of a wide range of books, including WALT AND SKEEZIX VOL. ONE; FLYTRAP; BATMAN: STRANGE APPARITIONS; MR. TOAST AT THE CIRCUS; IMAGINARY WORLD COMICS #1; and DIFFERENT UGLINESS, DIFFERENT MADNESS. I just finished the WALT AND SKEEZIX review at the end and turned it in and am pretty happy with the whole thing. Go read, and feel free to let me know what you thought, either here or at CBG's messboard.

Loved it Chris, very excited to see you reviewed Strange Apparitions, it's a collection I've been wanting to get since I ran my two-part Batman Column, and I think I'll go ahead and pick it up now.

Thanks, Logan. I hope you like Strange Apparitions. The price is certainly right. I was going to review Batman: Year One this week as well but the B:SA review ran so long I figured it could wait a week. It still holds up, though. Amazing how briskly Miller paced that story, where now he's allowing so many pages for ass shots and the like.
