I remember these appearances. Hysterical. Keefe drills this one.
These just get better and better. Thanks, Mike.
Love that wagging finger. Many thanks, Mike, this is spectacular
I only found out about Harvey Pekar’s death a few weeks ago. I am not sure why I did not see it on any news program when it happened. I discovered him some 30 years ago when I was in junior high; his approach was so fantastic to me, all from the margins but so dead on target at the center of our culture. He was so brilliant, so talented. I literally cried when I found out. Your panels here are fantastic. Thank you so much for your efforts. He deserved a much bigger audience for his work than what he got. It hurts to think how much we will miss his contributions.
Thanks for the kind words, Martin.
