Like last month, this month's best item is a big reprint book from Fantagraphics, this time two years of Pogo. Buy it buy it buy it. The Mickey Mouse hardbacks are impressive too.

The diversity of sources continues. This includes some items from Kids Can Press, a Garfield thing from Papercutz, one from Toon Books, and a couple of Dragon Punchers from Top Shelf that I pass over as overjuvie.

The Seattle P-I reports that comics publisher Fantagraphics Books ("Ghost World," "Naughty Bits," "The Bradleys"), is in dire financial straits and is facing the possibility of shutting down entirely.
