...didn’t take long for my optimism to fade. On Tuesday, the Republican rhetoric took a sharp turn toward the sanctimonious. Former New York Mayor Rudolph Guliani exclaimed in his speech, “Thank God that George Bush is our president.” My jaw dropped when he insisted that Bush’s reelection was somehow intimately tied to properly remembering the thousands who perished three years ago: “We owe that much and more to the loved ones and heroes that we lost on September 11,” he said...
Peter Krause isn't as attractive as people say. His jaw is too square; his face is too long; his upper lip sweats a bit. In 20 years, he will be great for a John Kerry biopic. But Krause's face, at once Teutonic and boyish, is perfect for what directors ask it to do again and again: express agony. Krause, who has a new film out this week, a Broadway play that opened July 29 and a leading role in HBO's Six Feet Under (Sundays at 9 p.m.), is having the time of his life playing...

Schr...
...with strong applause. Highlights of the awards included Derek Kirk Kim's Talent Deserving Wider Recognition (see TIME.comix review), Vertical Inc.'s "Buddha" for Best U.S. Edition of Foreign Material (see TIME.comix review), and Craig Thompson's "Blankets" for Best Graphic Album - New (see TIME.comix review). The jaw-dropping lowlight had to have been the award for Best Graphic Album - Reprint, which industry voters passed over Jim Woodring, Chester Brown, Chris Ware and Gilbert Hernandez to give to an utterly outclassed collection of "Batman Adventures" stories...
