Hopeless Savages, by Jen van Meter (who's married to Rucka). Vol. 1 is grebt fun, vol. 2 is rub, haven't tried vol. 3.

Terry Laban's daily strip "Edge City" is about a middle class couple with kids, but the dad is an aging punk type who's hobby is playing in a band. Some of the storylines in that vein are pretty good.

Isn't League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen Volume 3 supposed to come with an album of songs performed by Alan Moore?

Didn't Jamie Hewlett (he of Tank Girl and Gorillaz) do a comic to go with Pulp's 'Common People' - it used to be all over the net. And Fila Brazillia's 'Powerclowns' CD booklet is entirely made up of wordless mini-comics with tiny eye-hurting frames, but I remember them as rather nifty.

As to LOEG Vol 3, that depends if it ever comes out.

Negative effects of middle school comics habit:
1. Learned to draw bad anatomy with thick black outlines on everything
2. Friends loled at me every time a marvel or dc comic was spotted in my backpack or locker
3. Bought several ska cds based on Evan Dorkin letter pages

"WAHT"

I just wasted twenty minutes trying to find scans of that Prince Rogers Nelson Piranha book. If I had a scanner I'd just put my copy up. Anybody able to unearth this gem?

>> oh, and the warren ellis is in nick cave's new band, which i think's a bit strange
> You know it's not that Warren Ellis, right?

oddly, warren ellis' blog seems like it'd be just up nick cave's street.

Dunno but he did loads of art for the Senseless Things.

Alan Moore's Sinister Ducks was a proper 7" not a flexi.

Was that first Kula Shaker LP cover done by Dave Gibbons, or did it just look that way?
