* Child-porn conviction in Australia for dirty drawings of The Simpsons, The Powerpuff Girls, and The Incredibles. That’s a bad bad precedent. A real, serious crime involving imaginary depictions of imaginary people.
* Craig Thompson answers questions in a short interview someone’s doing for a school project. Aww!

* TWIN PEAKS SPOILER ALERT IF YOU CLICK THIS LINK: Believe it or not it took me more than a day to mentally picture Star Sapphire Audrey Horne. I will take credit, however, for pointing out that Twin Peaks already had a power ring.
