Do your self a favor and pick up this month's issue of the Spirit by Darwyn Cook. This book has been nothing but good since I started reading it. It's become, for me, the dependable comic being published right now. I don't even have to flip through it to know that it is going to be exciting and hilarious.

Issue number 10 deals with a string of murders. The victims: cable news personalities. Each victim is a thinly veiled caricature of a real cable news pundit (ex. Bill O'Reilly is Wally O'Bellows; Anderson Cooper is Scooper Sanderson). The plot follows the Spirit as he tries to solve the relentless string of murders before all of our "beloved" cable news folks are pushing up daisies. There is even a brief meditation on how the world might be a better place if people were more interested in news that is reported because of its relevance to the world rather that its luridness or connection to a celebrity.

I don't want to spoil it for you so I will close by saying, again, buy this book. Then, read the back issues and Will Eisner's original run. AWESOME!!!
