How ironic is it that my favorite comic of the new year, 2008, is a comic which ended its run in 2007? Too bad I can’t help myself.

I’ve been rereading Strangers in Paradise (SIP) to prepare for the shocking conclusion, not that it’s really shocking but I wouldn’t know because I haven’t read it yet… But my brother-in-law keeps pestering me so I want to read everything before I can say yes, I finally finished SIP and then we can discuss. Carmen, on the other hand, fell off the SIPfest before it even began. I waited and waited for her but no love, she’s too busy knitting. So I started reading it myself and so far I’m finding that I missed so much when I initially read most of the series and I have really enjoyed rereading it.

 Terry Moore is awesome and I hope he comes to comicon this year so I can see him in person. He’s got a new series coming out called Echo later this year and I’m sure it will be another favorite of the year. AND he’s also writing Runaways for a year and that’s one of my faves too so a Terry-tastic year is to be had up in the far north! If that’s not enough, he also did the art for a Buffy comic featuring Willow and Tara, it can’t get much better than that.

 Also, this cartoon he posted today is hilarious!

 Terry, you’re my hero!
