It has been super crazy at work this week so I haven't had a lot of time at home away from the crazy to GET THINGS DONE, so there's no new Found Sound this week. But there is, rather are, new strips for you in the Zero Fighter and Element Of Surprise departments. Stupid Comics will be appearing this week, but I make no claims as to its relevance or its laugh-creating capabilities. So, business as usual, then.

Meanwhile if you think there's nothing left to buy, think again because The Right Stuf is releasing the 1985 Dirty Pair TV series on DVD. I am pre-ordered already! Won't you?

Article about Toronto's Comic Book Convention WAR!! is up at Torontoist, with corrections in the first comment by Anime North's onw David Simmons. The article goes into fairly comprehensive depth about Toronto's comicon scene, but gets some curious facts skewed. Well, it's Torontoist. I've never been to the Fan Expo and I will never go to a Wizard convention so I don't have a dog in this fight.

Somebody should start a comic book show in Toronto that is nothing but a 50,000 square foot hall full of dealers, with a special outreach or cheap prices or something designed to get people to unload all the weird stuff in their closets. Forget the guests and the wrestlers and the movie stars and the TV personalities and the rock stars, I just want tables filled with longboxes. I would pay five or even ten bucks to go to a show like that.

You know what town doesn't have a comic book show? Buffalo. I bet you could get some sweet deals on comic books at a Buffalo convention. Also Mighty Taco. It's a win-win situation!
