Still alive. Posting tidbits on my Twitter (still finding it kind of useless; if anyone replies to me, I end up losing it in the morass of everyone else's bloody tweets!) and my Facebook. Full Orlando report to come by the festival's end, plus a video or two.

In the meantime, remember how I raved about the brilliance of THE LIFE AND TIMES OF SCROOGE MCDUCK as a no-bullshit sweeping epic of comics? You could seriously bill (har) it as THERE WILL BE DUCK. If you don't believe me, or were curious to read this criminally out-of-print masterpiece, someone at the other scans_daily took it upon themselves to scan an overview of the entire book w/ commentary in two parts.

Reading those just solidified what I've already felt: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF SCROOGE MCDUCK is in my top three or two favorite graphic novels of all time. Give those a read until you can actually check out the graphic novel.

Back to Fringing. But first, my filthy assistants require food.

Thankya! I know this show in particular is a niche one, filled with esoteric references and whatnot, so this review (what sounds representative of your average Fringe-goer, as I'd imagine all the reviewers would be) is damn satisfactory.

You can see who has replied to you on Twitter by clicking on the @replied link on the right hand sidebar...

Someone beat me to it.

Occasionally you will get @ replies from people you don't follow.

Which is how I communicate with comics guys ('cause they sure don't follow me! Well, one or two actually do, but that is because I am not an ass. At least not mostly.)

At first I thought Twitter was useless, made an account, deleted it. Now it gives me hope for humanity.

I still do worry about its ownership, however, and refuse to get too firmly attached until we learn exactly what their profit model is, though.

Sorry, just wanted to say.

CapFringe, you mean? Sadly, I'll be sitting this one out to attend the Winnipeg Fringe!

A-yep, Cap Fringe. Should be cool!

I just got the actual graphic novel through my library. Yay for state-wide system searches.
