I’ll be at the Miami Book Fair next weekend with Cuba: My Revolution and its remarkable authors Inverna Lockpez and Dean Haspiel. If you’re in the hood, join us at our November 21st panel. If you’re stuck in New York and jealous, you have til December 12 to check out this great exhibit of sketches, original art and process pieces from the book at Brooklyn’s Kentler Gallery!

Another great Vertigo author in Miami: Mat Johnson (Dark Rain, Incognegro), appearing Saturday!

Let’s score these episodes to The Magnetic Fields’ “I’m Sorry I Love You.”

Let’s go with a fond retrospective of Karima and Annette’s lovely existence separately before getting on the road to hell that is Yvonne’s current situation. I just don’t feel right about combining the two, even if they are all fictional characters who can’t lay in wait for me in a dark alley…

The bar in “Election Yearn” is a hat tip to Brooklyn’s own Double Windsor. Stop by for a stiff IPA. You’ll probably need it November 2.

September got away from me. Sorry. But remarkably, “Lender-Bender” is just as relevant now as it was before Labor Day…or even two years ago. Yeah, that’s right. You guys are getting nagged to stimulate the economy while these guys are just getting outright bribed, and guess who gets more money out of the deal. Kinda makes you want to take it all out on some dude trying to build a community center in downtown Manhattan, doesn’t it? No? Well, straighten up and get a little more hopelessly knee-jerk about it.

The best-laid plans, etc., etc., et cetera.

Whoops, it’s September already? Here you go.

First time I ever pirated my own Facebook posts for a gag. But hey, it’s the Gap’s fault, not mine.
