Art is just coming alive for me since coming across Hillary White. Her latest, Miss Piggy and the Elders based on Artemisia Gentileschi's Susanna ei Vecchioni. I'm like all cultured and stuff now.

Sloan, I Am Crazy Of You

My coworker Ron (@boyreporter; Boy Reporter's Nookbook) — who goes well above and beyond — picked me up a kick-ass Sloan poster at from the Toronto Comic Arts Festival this weekend (which I sadly missed), designed by Mike Holmes. I immediately popped on earphones and listened to Twice Removed. Awesome!

Sci Fi Ikea Manuals

And while a cheap time machine made out of pressboard does sound appealing, entering the dimension-bending maze that is an Ikea store just isn't worth it. See more Sci Fi Ikea Manuals by Caldwell Tanner.

Don't you forget about me. Seems like fans of Firefly won't. From artist Kari Fry: "It was a tough call, but I had to make it a direct reference to The Breakfast Club poster, which is five characters. I thought about shoehorning more characters in, but I needed to stay true to the iconic original"
