Random Thoughts

New book coming out, available from Buy Me Toys.com. It's an Oz/Wonderland thingy, so I ordered it for hubby-Eric immediately. Dorothy and Alice are college students who think their adventures in Oz and Wonderland are mere childhood fantasies. Only they weren't... Found via Comics Continuum.

As long as I'm talking about Oz, I should let you know that the second issue of Dorothy of Oz has a release date now. They'll start taking orders the first week in September for a September 25th release date. I enjoyed the first issue and I'm really looking forward to seeing what this version of Oz will look like.

A great series, Superman: Secret Identity, but it didn't even make enough to cover the advances. This was a four starfish series across the board. I wish more people had gotten it. This news, more than any other, makes me wonder about the future of comic books as a viable medium for storytelling.

Remember to pick up Aquaman #21 tomorrow!

No, not that. This:

This is the start of a new story-arc, with some continuing plot threads from the first Pfeifer story. It might be a good jumping on point.

This is Methuselah the fish. Methuselah lives in the pond in Nancy's garden, and has survived quite a long time. I noticed when house-sitting while the pugs were gone that the neighborhood cats seemed terribly optimistic and attempted to snag him. None of them came close.
