Thanks to cable's ravenous maw for content, more diverse and complex shows are entering the rerun canon. Cartoon Network (which, like TIME, is owned by AOL Time Warner) not only spun off the Boomerang channel of old cartoons for nostalgic adults (Get it?

...code name for their "Bizarro Comics" project, it should have been "Faust." This deluxe, hardcover book brings together many of alterna-comix best talents to write and draw stories using the many superheroes, like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and Aquaman, owned by mainstream behemoth DC (owned by AOL Time Warner, the same parent company as this website.) Would there be a price to pay for playing with the big, bad money? Sure enough, a whiff of sulfur may fill your nostrils as you plunk down your...
