Sorry I haven’t posted for a while — still recovering from a surprisingly turbulent Thanksgiving. I’ve been mulling a review of the Black Dossier, but am not sure if I have much to say that hasn’t already been said — though I liked it a little more than most people apparently did. We’ll see.
In the meantime, in the comments to Frank’s Galactikrap review, reader Luke Pski pointed out a really terrific post written by cartoonist and all-around great guy Tom K. on Yokoyama’s New Engineering. The J.G. Ballard comparison is brilliant, and I can’t believe I didn’t think of it first.

Now is as good a time as any to post a link to my review of the first two issues of 1-800-Mice, even though I am no Mome contributor:

It is then equally as good a time as any to point to this pretty interesting review of Yokoyama’s work. I have no idea what the background of the author of this review is, but i have so far enjoyed reading his articles on the site.
