The Savage Critic: December
26th 2002
By Brian
Hibbs
Welcome back, my friends, to the show
that never ends.
Dude. There is no Savage Critic this
week. We told you that last week. Not one next week, either. Comics
ship on Friday in the first week of 2003, by the way. Don’t show up
to your store on Wednesday or Thursday and whine!
What follows is a list of stuff that
actually shipped to CE, and, aw, what the fuck, the best and worst of
the week.
Meanwhile, do take a look at Brian’s
Year End column, which is conveniently linked here.
You may, in fact, laugh once or twice.
It was a god-damn big week o’ comics
this time out....
