Cue Roger Daltrey Scream In 5, 4, 3, 2 …
No reason, it’s just nice and sunny today in New York, and I’m wishing I had my sunglasses with me.
- Update: Frank Frisina’s niece safe.
- Titans of Small Town chat with O.N.S.T.A.D. transcript now available; click here for the PDF.
- Chris Sims of The Invincible Super-Blog (referenced last week on this very page) spoke to Valerie D’Orazio about comics, of the print and web varieties:
