Happy Halloween!  I’d like to read a webcomic for our next chat. Any recommendations?

Was MAD considered a comic book?

 I alway thought of it as a really cool magazine...

Hadn’t really thought it as one.  Might be hard to find an issue for us all to read.

For December 10th, let’s read Lavender Jack, the online webcomic.  Save the date!

Happy holidays!  Please join us next week on the 10th at 8 p.m. to chat about webcomics and Lavender Jack (first episodes.) PM me for Zoom details.

After months of trying, I finally managed to get the first two volumes of the latest reissue of perhaps the finest comic book story arc of all time, "Trigan Empire". Anybody else aware of this ? every panel hand-painted. It began in the UK's most expensive multi-tale comic  of that time, "Ranger". Unlike many things which I loved as a kid, the fascination of this one remains. If anything, I'm even more impressed than I was back then. ( although me-today keeps seeing plot-holes which me-then didn't.)
