A dedicated group of aficionados - at all levels: creators, publishers, retailers AND consumers - have kept alive (and commercially viable) a particular delivery vehicle of a particular genre of American storytelling. Along the way they’ve managed to provide the critical mass to support an entire distribution system that allows an increasingly broad and sophisticated amount of material to piggyback on the core genre/format combination and be championed by a dedicated group of specialists. That’s a great thing and should be promoted to the high heavens rather than just begrudgingly accepting that print periodical superhero comics are no longer a mass cultural item like they were 25 (or 50) years ago.
The Austin Incident - Doug Stanhope (and Alex Jones) Live in 2004
An hour long video featuring a great set from Doug Stanhope, and an opening rant from Alex Jones. The lesson to be learned here is that if you don’t want to wind up the hecklers, don’t let Alex Jones open for you. Highly recommended if you’re not easily offended.

I guess I didn’t think about it but that coffee cup is probably ENORMOUS, right?
