Congratulations are due to a pair of cartoonists this week. First, to Steven Cloud, whose webcomic Boy on a Stick and Slither became a part of the Comics.com family (that’s United Media’s site) this week.
Next, congrats are also due to Michael Kupperman of “Tales Designed to Thrizzle” fame, who not only garnered an Eisner nomination, but also is contributing a series of strips entitled “The Spoily Brats” to the new paperback editions of the best-selling “A Series of Unfortunate Events” books by Lemony Snicket. Hooray for supplimental material!

Tales Designed to Thrizzle is excellent. It’s hysterical and surreal but not in a contrived way. It’s formally innovative, and evocative of past eras with a fresh perspective.
