AiT publisher Larry Young drops us a note — and mentions on the AiT site — that today marks the ninth anniversary of AiT/Planet Lar:

Today is the ninth anniversary of the date you could first walk into a comic store and buy a copy of Astronauts in Trouble: Live From the Moon #1, which is the date we count as the start of the company, even if we were working on the project for a year before that. And, you know, it was published by those titans of industry, Rob and Steve Snell, the powerful third stage of the Saturn V rocket that got us into orbit. Me, I’m spending the day lettering Dugout, Adam Beechen and Manny Bello’s creative follow-up to their last team-up on Hench.

In other words, just another day of Making Comics Better…

Dugout,, a baseball story about a prison break, is due in July.
