Wondering Where The Lions Are

I had to spend a few extra minutes in the grocery store parking lot when this came on the radio. Wait. That makes me sound really old. I was actually somewhere really cool. A loft apartment. Yes. And, uh, it was an expensive custom-made Japanese stereo. Not the radio in my reliable and safe car.

Anyway, this a great song. Listen to it. Again, if you’ve heard it before.

Weathercraft

I’m really looking forward to reading Jim Woodring’s latest Frank comic, Weathercraft—I won’t understand it all but I’m looking forward to it nonetheless.

Like Dave Fleischer, I think cartoons are most enjoyable when they depict things you could never see in real life. On the other hand, pure fantasy interests me not at all. Everything in the Frank comics has its basis in reality…or at least in reality as I see it. I guess that could be a significant qualifier.

That’s from the pretty decent Comic Book Resources interview, Woodring Practices “Weathercraft”. And, if you’re not familiar with Frank, watch this—and you’ll be anxious to read Weathercraft too.
