Ultra detailed Al Jaffee art for Humbug

It's great to know that the original artwork still exists, and that Fantagraphics is taking this collection seriously enough to seek it out.

I've had mine on order for months.

You have to go some to make Wal-Mart look good by comparison.

Congratulations, Flagler Productions. You've done it.

Torontoist blog improves Toronto Transit Commission's rider survey

I dunno, Phasor...

Raising fares might discourage ridership, and push people to other forms of transportation that pollute more and contribute to congestion of already crowded highways. It might make it harder for some low-wage employees to get to their jobs. It might marginally discourage people from getting a quick ride to go shopping.

78% of survey respondents sound willing to raise their own taxes (assuming respondents are from Toronto). It doesn't sound like the "free ride" mentality that has prevailed in the U.S. ever since Ronald Reagan's assault on taxes.

Maybe mass transit benefits not only the people who ride it, but those who don't, as well?

No friends yet.
