Last week, I was sitting in the lunchroom reading the Powers Encyclopedia when the Vice President of Program Leadership walked in, glanced at the cover of what I was reading, and remarked, "That's a great comic."

I can not read this post yet because I almost bought CHEW today (the title drew me in and then the art and then my comic book store guy's description) but I changed my mind at the last second and bought Book 10 of Fables. I have every intention of buying CHEW the next time.

Ha! Nice! Fables is also a good choice too, of course.

I call pun foul. (Or possibly pun fowl.)

Sounds bizarre. And possibly interesting.

It is both! I read the latest issue today and was cracking up. It's a great mix of real-world-with-a-hint-of-crack. Perhaps more than a hint. It's not balls-out cracktastic, but oh man, the, er, character development in the latest issue is hilarious.
