A Happier Day For Some Than Others...

Did I mention today was National Comic Book Day? Well, it is. And Mike Wieringo (link at sidebar, under "Kultcha") has a lovely announcement up on his blog today. The only thing that would thrill me more is if 'Ringo actually put in some permalinks... Also on the good news front, Lis Riba (link at sidebar) reports on an article in the latest Stars & Stripes about Chris Tarbassian, founder of Operation Comix Relief which sends comic books to armed forces serving overseas. I wish this had been around when I was sending Steve his weekly haul during his last years in the Navy. But it's not too late for Laura Gjovaag (link at sidebar), who's been faithfully sending comics to an Aquaman fan in Iraq, to take advantage of this organization's existence!
