Scott McCloud's I Can't Stop Thinking ...
Used to read many more comics than I do now. But tempted all over again by what McCloud writes.
(Should, of course, also be commenting on what Gaiman writes. And it is 'writes', these days. American Gods is a fine book, even considering its relative lack of rivers. And no, it is not 'just the same as Sandman').
But I digress.
Am heading out to buy Transmetropolitan, because I liked what I read. And maybe if it is not solid text I can read it. (Reading solid text, in book form, for more than about 20 minutes sets off twitches, neuralgia, migraines and depression-at-not-having-finished-Years-of-Rice-and-Salt)

I'm still annoyed that Kitchen Sink went bust before printing volume 4 of the Collected Zot, as I'm missing most of Earth Stories
Do you get the feeling I'm a bit of a Zot fan?
