So it’s late and I’m bored. I don’t want to read, I don’t want to watch tv and there is no-one on that I really want to have a conversation with. Not even in the mood for any of the MP3’s on the ‘puter. So realising that the masterpiece that is “OK Computer” is within reach I am now feeling a little better 🙂

Other comics I picked up today are Greg Rucka’s “Whiteout“. I liked his work on the various Batman titles and other recent stuff and this is I believe his first comic work so I’m looking forward to reading it. Also I picked up Art Spiegelman’s “Maus“. Alongside “Watchmen” and “The Dark Knight Returns” this is one of the most acclaimed comics of the 80’s and indeed of all time. Mark Waid went as far once as to state they are the only comics you need to read.
The author interviewed his father, a Holocaust survivor and turned that interview into a comic. In 1992 a special Pulitzer catagory was created to honour Spiegelman and “Maus”. I doubt I will get into this tonight, but when I do you can be sure there will be a post or two in it.

oh and for the record the term “list-mom” is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard.
