Sparks

September 13, 2005 by David Welsh

What’s that you say? A new volume of Electric Girl is coming out this week? Why, yes, Local Comics Shop, I would love one, thank you! I really enjoyed the first two collections of this title, and it will always have a special place in my heart. It’s one of the comics that first made me suspect Johanna Draper Carlson could induce me to overspend.

Something tells me I neglected to pre-order a copy of Hope Larson’s Salamander Dream, which makes me feel very foolish, particularly in light of Rose’s comments about the book. It’s easily rectified foolishness, though, as opposed to my usual variety.

Apparently, I have similar taste in titles as manga collaborative Clamp. And yet I’m not really crazy about the manga Clamp actually produces. Still, I admit to viewing them in a warmer light now that I know of their love for The Sergeant.
