Pity me, as you would Trout in an gallery of comics art. Or Joffrey.

  I don't know much about archaeology, but I prefer it to football.

I'd love to live in a world where archaeology is treated like sport. I'd probably even take an interest in the Archaeology Winter Olympics.

$19.5 million? What the hell are Brits doing with all those weapons, or are shotguns $100,000 a pop? I've only ever known one person who owned a gun in my entire life.

I was in an art gallery full of framed comic book art and I didn't have time to look at it. Pity meeee.

I'm going back tomorrow. Creative people will be there, too! Yay!

Anybody know the work of Seth?

The U.S. provides some great club-visuals.

Now this is PROPER archaeology!

Anybody know the work of Seth?

Seth  (Greg Gallant?) is the man - although to be truthful, I probably have an impression of him as much influenced by his regular appearances in Joe Matt and Chester Brown's auto-bio books. Aside from some great comics (check out Wimbledon Green), the little cardboard sets he builds for his stories are incredible pieces of art in themselves.  A great sense of craft, design and history, and despite an artfully contrived personna probably the least weird of the Toronto Three, or at least the one least given to onanism.

Let us know if you meet him!

While I have a lot of time for the ideas of Contemporary Archaeology, the way various 'cool' archaeologists have draped themselves all over this one just pisses me off.  I'm close to conducting a purge of my Twitter feed.
