...reading the children's book. "Forlorn Funnies," continues this way, folding one episode into the next, from a washed-up TV character to a guy lamenting his fallen hamburger to the confused sexual fantasies of a pink-shirted bird-watcher. Through it all Hornschemeier mixes up color palates, layout and drawing styles. The result is a screwy, goofball showcase of comix' unique ability to combine graphic design and storytelling...

...bags up an escalator. The three gate concourses are connected by a train system that is fast and convenient--except when it's not working (which lately has not been very often and usually for only short periods).

...exudes a shabby charm. Dimly lit narrow streets, lined with local markets and Korean, Chinese and Manchurian eateries, lend Ji'an a small-town feel, despite a population of more than 100,000. Few buildings are taller than four stories, and many homes retain their traditional Chinese layout of inner courtyards roofed with orange tiles. Though at first glance Ji'an's ancient heritage appears to have been washed away with the changing course of the Yalu, the discerning eye may yet spot a stretch of ancient city wall among the lines and angles of more modern structures. For those...
