i'd love to see an <i>ACME Novelty Library</i> film, but only if it's animated... i think a project like that could become a classic...

I agree. A Jimmy Corrigan movie. Chris Ware went to the same comic shop in Omaha that I did and for this reason and others he'll always be my own personal god.
Also, don't forget to mention Optic Nerve. It's probably the best short fiction being written right now, in comics or prose.

Then he asks me if I have any bills because he forgot his wallet at home. All I had was some American money, a 1 dollar and 10 dollar bill. He rolls them up and proceeds to snort through the money. He then tells me he's buying my American money from me. I ask, "I'm going to the States in a couple of weeks. Can't I just keep the money?" To which he replies "No." I figured he was joking, but when he left later I realized that he did indeed take the money. And that's how my The Goon #14 was inaugurated with cocaine. The End.
