  • Exciting night! Saw my mom's cat butt-scoot across the kitchen floor & my toddler said 'Shit'. Neither was my fault, by the way. #

  • Top dumb news stories: the 'breading' meme and donkey semen on 'Fear Factor'. Suddenly dinner doesn't feel so good. #
  • My site is completely, exquisitely f*cked up for now (so don't go there). Want to throw out computer, Ron Swanson-style. Going to bed. #

These Classics are Graphic! (And out now!)

Sunday, December 18th, 2011 by Masheka Wood

African-American Classics: Graphic Classics Vol. #22 is out NOW.

Get it and check out pages 108 & 109 first. Then read the rest of the book, filled with adapted stories and poems by comic luminaries including Lance Tooks, Kyle Baker, Alex Simmons, and Shephard Hendrix. Let the awesomeness permeate your brainmeat for approximately 20 minutes after book reading is complete. Feel free to weep openly with joy, but try to keep your clothes on.

When your joy tears have dried and your pants are rebuckled, read Volume 22 again. WITH FERVOR! However this time pages 108 & 109 should be read last and in a booming theatrical voice with lots of hand gestures. Also it’s recommended that you orate it standing up and marching in a circle (or in the shape of your choosing).

Repeat the process, only this time read every third word in every third panel. Who knows? You might find a secret message hidden inside!
