...ladies have been enjoying the chance to expand their sartorial selection, some men have seen less of an impact on their style. “I haven’t worn a hat all year,” Scheinmann said. “Guys’ fashion is more bland anyway.” Most students have revelled in the unusual heat, but for some, the warm weather has been disconcerting. “I’m from Boston so I’m used to it being cold from early December to early March.

...most suburban comix to be found in the alternative market. His regular series Or Else has been reviewed by TIME.comix, and he specializes in small-scale narratives of riding bikes or bringing home the groceries that end up becoming part of larger cosmological considerations. His principal character, a bland looking guy in his late twenties(?) named Glenn Ganges, sports softball T-shirts, drives a compact car and spends his leisure time at home with his wife Wendy, reading books...
