Comics reviews!
Stupid Comics #2 by Jim Mahfood
Mahfood likes the Mars Volta. That kind of sums up everything that's wrong with this comic. I mean, I like it in large parts even though the politics are simplistic and self-congratulatory* and frequently contradictory in a very unaware way but... I can't help feeling like I'm mostly cutting the guy slack based on how much I like some of his earlier work. No prog please Mahfood, etc.
*9 times out of 10 when people describe a piece of art/entertainment which has 'progressive' politics as being self-congratulatory, they are lying to you and just being reactionary. This is not one of those times.
