Carey, Mike and Louise Carey, authors, Aaron Alexovitch, artist: Confessions of a Blabbermouth
(Minx. It's awfully silly, but I liked it, although I think I liked Carey's other Minx title, The Re-Gifters, more. Alexovitch's style is growing on me).
Kim, Derek Kirk: Same Difference and Other Stories
(I enjoyed the title story; the others, not so much. I have never been interested in detailed discussions of people's bowel movements, and the wheres and hows of those. I think this is because I am a woman.
On the whole, I liked his Minx title Good as Lily more, probably because the protagonist was female and not very jerky. And that book spent--if I recall properly--no time whatsoever discussing bowel movements).
Baker, Kyle: Undercover Genie
(this is a hodge-podge of stuff from the Kyle Baker filing cabinet--sketches, character designs, shorts, caricatures, jokes. Fun, although not the same degree of awesome as Baker genius focused on a single narrative.
I hope Kyle Baker never gets ticked off at me. If he made fun of me, I'd have to go sit in a corner and cry).
