Not that I think his plan will succeed. His comic is too niche marketed and I'd be surprised if he got taken up on it. Precisely. Not only is his demographic not large enough to attract the newspapers' attention, but they are also probably savvy enough to already read his strip on-line. There's no ...

Re: The best way to show a different Language.
It is not lazy storytelling, because sometimes it is hard to put complex ideas into a picture without using text. Try doing a wordless comic without any dialog, naration or footnotes ... Psst! If anyone's interested in experimenting with this, you couldn't pick a better time than the upcoming Strip...

Theory essay: Untangling Comics
http://www.borealism.com/essays.html Untangling Comics, my undergrad thesis is available on-line now. It picks up a paradigm from film theory and applies it to comics. I think it covers a lot of ground and I hope it does a reasonably good job doing so. However, it's pretty long (printed out, it was ...

I'd recommend Niklas Luhmann's "Einf?hrung in die Systemtheorie" but I don't believe it's widely available in an english translation. Explaining it would be a bit too off-topic. You can read up on it @ the Wikipedia article on him , though. Thanks for the link. I didn't realise there were still peo...

One could just as easily say that they came to the conclusion that there is no god due to strenuous scientific method. As a good humanities major, I think I am duty-bound to mention that there is also a belief component to scientific knowledge -- belief that there is an objective reality, that scie...

Sociologist Emile Durkheim (he's one of the Big Three in the field) defined religion primarily as a system for distinguishing the sacred from the profane. In the most basic sense, for most atheists this distinction is meaningless since there is nothing that is "sacred" nor "profane" in the strict, d...

Given my druther's, I like Big Rock or some of the Unibroue beers (Blanche de Chambly and Maudite). And I have a special place in my heart for Keith's, having been born in Halifax on Alexander Keith's birthday. I like Sleeman Steam quite well, too. I mean, I'll drink Labatt or Molson if it's offered...
