We Are All Dan Pussey

You have to scroll down a bit, but Jog talks smart about the re-release of Daniel Clowes' Pussey!. Not only does the comic, about the rise and fall of a relentlessly self-unaware mainstream cartoonist, have a lot to say in a re-read about how little certain aspects of the industry have changed in 12 years, but the hapless and even ugly nature of its protagonist exists in a much different context today, where creatures equally unpleasant and nowhere near as interesting anchor films and television shows. It's almost like a brand-new book.
