Tony Venezia on Ghost World. Calvin Reid on Tipping Point. Craig Fischer on Providence. Alex Spencer on Phonogram: The Immaterial Girl.

* in case you were wondering what the wallpaper in Hell looks like, here you go. There's a lot of fun stuff when you back up out of that particular post and look around, for sure.
