    If you can find it, you should seek out his self published thing from a few years back, "Tug and Buster." Funny stuff!

    I didn't know he had anything new out. MUST FIND!
    This is issue #3, but I can't find a copyright date anywhere
    on it to know when this came out. It's got an assortment of
    different things in it including "Tug and Buster" and "Victim
    Victoria."

    I haven't read any of the Gregory stuff. I mostly know his
    work from when he worked on "The Sandman."

    That said, I didn't find "Naked Brain" all that funny. It was
    enjoyable enough to give me a smirk every now and again,
    but I find Jhonen Vasquez's later work and Phil Foglio's work
    to be funnier.

    I remember picking up the 1st issue of Tug & Buster... wasn't that impressed...

    I still think the GREGORY stuff is top notch... though I should take a look at Naked Brain.

    Promethea ROCKS!!!! beyond belief... easily top 5 material!!!

    Have any of you seen
    Vertigo POPLONGON?

    Now that's a hilarious read, with great art as well... check it out!!!

    Just saw XXX... what a laugh...

    PITCH BLACK rocked though, so here's hoping for a good enough sequel.

    speaking of sequels... any of you see the X2 trailers? I'm hopeful...

    Hmm... I've been eyeing it, but haven't read one
    yet. Maybe I'll have to pick up a copy today.

    No, but I have the first three from PopTokyo. I never
    did see the fourth one on the shelves, so I didn't get
    it.

    Several trade paper backs of PROMETHEA are available... SO totally worth picking up, start with book 1...

    but the Most recient issue is the begining of a new story line... it's got a painted cover of a ...oh, just look for your self

    Yeah...

    Vertigo POP: TOKYO was fun... issue 4 WAS hard to find....

    Vertigo POP:LONDON is even BETTER!!! issue #3 just came out #1 should still be available!!!

    I picked up that issue last night. It's pretty interesting, but has
    potential of being a little superhero-y for my tastes. I'll give it
    another couple of issues to decide.

    Yeah, I figure a lot of people got spooked when #3 ended with
    the 16yo Japanese girl stripping down to presumably screw her
    captive rock star. I haven't seen any of Pop:London at my local
    store. I think they got too worried from the Tokyo one. Hell, I'm
    surprised they didn't put the latest League of Extraordinary
    Gentlemen in a plastic bag.

    They bagged LOEG at the shop I go to... but then again they do the same thing with The FILTH...rightly so as the shop is walking distance from a highschool...

    should I even mention how BAD@ss LOEG is???

    An Yeah, the recient issue of Promethea is a bit more superheroish... but I think it's to offset the Mindbending storyline that only just ended the issue before...

    Still, the ART!!! man, the ART!!!

    All the issues of LOEG or just the latest one? The latest one
    should've been bagged, but the others seemed fine to me.

    should I even mention how BAD@ss LOEG is???
    You could, but this is pretty much a given.
    I gotta read me some Jules Verne.

    Yeah, I really dug the Crusades era sections, but the present
    day section didn't strike me as anything above what I expected
    of it.

    'Ow about this one? Or this one? Here's another one...

    I'm not very fond of Cage either, but Keanu??? Ewwwww!!!
    I'm thinking Kevin Spacey (he may not look like Constantine, but he's one d@mn fine actor) or maybe Colin Farrell...

    does anyone here read kung fu comics?

    I like Storm Riders, a classic.

    I just picked up Story of the Tao and the Crouching Tiger comic, both are good.

    I had seen an ad for their stuff, but I haven't been able
    to find it in my area. Someday, perhaps.
