...Much Coffee Man" the magazine is a bi-monthly humor publication with comix in it. Other than a thread of coffee-related stories, the editorial direction seems muddled. It reads like a 'zine with high production values. The latest issue includes reviews of a new line of pocket tools, drip coffee makers, and CDs, along with a few vaguely humorous essays. The centerpiece, an article about pornography videos aimed at the religious right ("Debbi Does Sodom," "The Two Marys"), makes a pretty cheeky practical joke. The comix are still the best part with contributions from Rick Geary, Graham Annable...
...battle, said an emotional President Bush in Florida last week, "is a sign of what is going to happen for a while." In the war against terrorism, more American casualties are inevitable. One day, perhaps, Americans will tire of the slow drip of deaths?three here, five there?of the sort that old colonial powers like France and Britain once learned to endure. That hasn't happened yet; Shah-i-Kot marks the first time in many years that Americans have died in battle on a foreign field without a sense of outrage and shame at home. After 18 Army...
...washes of aqua and occupied with skeletal and archaic linear motifs of ships that are often obscured by explosions of saturated and fiery color.

...street vendors in a hundred different pin designs. And if the initial TV coverage of the Olympics is a guide, Old Glory will be stenciled on every second snowdrift in Utah. Meanwhile, corporate America and Madison Avenue have found a new theme: Sept. 11 sells! Hence the ads that drip mawkishness like a melting candle (those Budweiser Clydesdales bowing before lower Manhattan) or, like the astonishingly crass Kenneth Cole glossy, somehow link the tragedy to soulful sex ("On September 12, fewer men spent the night on the couch...
Mueller, too, damningly equates—or conflates—art and food. He glosses his own work: “19 fluff bunnies. Nineteen cast plaster rabbits covered with Marshmallow Fluff™. Cast-cover-drip-display-shine-sniff-distaste-desire-ad nauseum.” And true to this description, he offers a bevy of 19 frighteningly exaggerated marshmallow bunnies, perched atop cans of paint on a transparent tarpaulin. They are, to be sure, shiny and distasteful, but again this seems to be Mueller’s intent. The bunnies aren’t themselves sculptures?...
