Scott Pilgrim, by Bryan Lee O'Malley. This one is really fun. Compelling story about Canadian indie rockers who are also ninjas. Not the kind of art that I draw, but I like it. No hint of self-imposed-homework-feelings while reading (and rereading :) it.
Skim by Mariko and Jillian Tamaki. Storyline, B- ish; artwork, A. Very different feel than Scott Pilgrim and most comics for that matter. Lots of brush work and fluid use of space.
Best American Comics 2008. This is a fun (and cheap!) hardcover selection. Some are great, some are pretty, some are boring. Overall a really useful survey of what is going on, I thought.
AND, In The Studio
Sanded down some old half-done rabbit paintings that looked AWFUL. Like the result. Painted a lot of things red the other day in preparation for gilding, but had no camera on hand. Am moving out of studio soon (in like 3 days :o ) so I need to finish up with stuff over there.
