Not Comics: Tim Kreider Loves Pluto

The editorial cartoonist Tim Kreider is also a fine writer, as anyone who read his exegesis on B. Kliban in one of the Comics Journal specials a few years back can certainly attest. He has a guest editorial in the New York Times about the planet Pluto which contains throwaway gems like "I've long regarded Saturn's misty tantalizing moon Titan as the Homecoming Queen of the solar system, courted and fawned over, stringing us along with teasing glimpses under her atmosphere, while Pluto was more like the chubby Goth chick who wrote weird poems about dead birds and never talked to anybody."
