I’m mad at (or about) Comic-Con.

Keith Robinson Comic-Con 2008

I think I've been to Comic-Con three times. It's always a blast, and exciting and exhausting. I'd never gone alone before, though, so I was a little nervous. Keith Robinson, showing off all his worldly goods, including Making It books. First I tried to register as Professional, or Press. Annoyance #1. "Yeah, really great, YAWN, but give us ...

Cartoon: Date at the movies.

I can't even think of ...

Dilbert isn’t funny anymore.

Dilbert characters

At least in the LA Times. Hello, Dilbert, my old friend. I know papers are trying to save money. The LA Times is laying off 150 more reporters this month. Really shameful. And haven't I already been a victim from that?! And so sometimes they shave a sliver off the page. I guess the columns just got ...
