This has been advertised for months & still hasn't been published.

Any idea when it's supposed to arrive?

There is nothing new under the sun. A truism about cliches.

+++It's just a rip-off of that old joke - the one whose punchline is "When the cops smell your fingers, you'll get five years". Misogynistic AND unoriginal.

Your point?

The joys of smegma.

Fuck me how did they ever make it?, it's fantastic.

***Fair enough, it's only my opinion***

I don't disagree with your supposition that comics are tailored toward the trade paperback market. I agree with that idea. I was saying that, if you take 2000AD as a model, anthologies do not or don't have to lack the page count required for trade collections, as 4 weekly issues of 2000AD a month would equal 4 or 5 separate monthly US style comics.

***I'd argue that anthologies 'don't work' because they have too short a page-count to collect into trade collections, which is pretty much what all monthly comics are tailored towards these days. Marvel especially have given up on self-contained monthly stories in ongoing books. ***

I don't agree, I think that's a misconception.

Doesn't the page count work out the same though, 4 weekly issues of 2000AD is the equivalent of 4 or 5 separate monthly comics depending on the stories. Since every story in tooth is around 6 pages every week, that amounts to 24 pages for each story every month, which is the same amount of pages in a monthly comic.

2000AD ends up with the same amount of story as 4 or 5 separate monthly titles.

I had one just today, in fact I'm wearing his hump as a hat.

Holy fuck!

...don't put your foot in your mouth.

+++She'll be expecting to get a lot more as she's planning on suing every newspaper in at least *this* country that printed stuff about the divorce.

...she doesn't have a leg to stand on. -(how bad can this get)

..and she only had half a leg.

Wow, can you smoke it?

It only means we'll have more years of the odiously embarassing Barrymore giving puffyfaced interviews and looking bewildered.
