...Carol Swain has one of the most unique and compelling styles in comix. "Foodboy" will give you the chills. Even the cover features a depopulated, snowy landscape with a trail of footprints leading off into the distance. Cool and natural, it perfectly represents the book: a muted pastoral that holds within it an unquiet human heart...
...Cheney's statements. I'm more concerned about the snide, dismissive, undignified quality of the Vice President's performance. He set the ugly, personal tone for the week, for the coordinated attacks on Clarke's character and motives. (The merits of Clarke's case were confirmed by the paper trail unearthed by the 9/11 commission's staff.) But the public seems to have tired of the Vice President's act.

Me and Mr. Johnson never feels urgent. The only genuine emotion Clapton musters is reverence. Aerosmith has never revered anything but its own double entendres, which gives it a distinct creative advantage...
...Bacanovic had an oral agreement to sell ImClone at a preset price--was left unsubstantiated. "What was the evidence that there was a prior conversation if they didn't testify?" says Schiffman. "The defense didn't offer an alternative theory." But that was at the end of a long trail of missteps by Stewart and her handlers. Among the fateful errors...
