TALES DESIGNED TO THRIZZLE AND DI GI CHARAT
Very little comics news really excites me these days. But I was definitely excited when I learned that Michael Kupperman, whose Snake 'n' Bacon's Cartoon Cabaret is one of the funniest books ever, has a new ongoing -- ongoing! -- series coming out. It'll be published by Fantagraphics, and issue #1 is in the latest Previews.
Also in the latest Previews is the DVD of the original Di Gi Charat TV series. Don't confuse this with Di Gi Charat Nyo, Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat, or the various manga incarnations of the characters; the original TV series is not aimed at children, and at its best is brilliantly absurd humor.
