Part of the do-it-yourself generation of young comix makers that include James Kochalka and Jeffery Brown, Tom Hart first introduced Hutch Owen in 1994's self-published "Hutch Owen's Working Hard." Rendered in a blunt scrawl, its freedom from convention and its unusual political and social content made it a memorable debut for those lucky enough to find it. (Both this and other tales later appeared in 2000's "The Collected Hutch Owen.") Since then Hart has worked on other projects but Hutch Owen has continued as his enduring, evergreen character. "Unmarketable" brings together several pieces that...

His goal, he says, is to allay government concerns that independent Buddhism is a threat. "In order for freedom to be possible," he says, "we should help remove fear, misunderstanding and discrimination." Dispelling decades of suspicion may be a quite a challenge, even for a Zen master...
...entirely ? la carte. Fees for individual channels?among them BBC, HBO, the Disney Channel and MTV?start at about $2 a month. Subscribers can readily drop channels and sign up for new ones on a monthly basis with a few clicks of their remote controls. "I like the freedom," says secretary Leung Man-fung, whose pay-TV bill comes to just $10 a month. "I only wanted news, and cartoons for my children, and don't want to pay for everything else...
