* I'd love to think this might have any effect at all on the use of the imagery in question, but I sort of doubt it. At some point, it bleeds out or is so far transformed it just isn't the same thing.

* Carol Hills talks to Guy Delisle.

The thing I hope we all begin to see about the assault on free speech is that there little to no "violation" felt in these actions, no upsetting of the status quo.

* finally, a bit of not comics: Todd Klein on Cold Shoulder Road.
