A supercool comics event, one of so many recently, is taking place tonight at the Newark Museum. Now, you may be afraid of going to Newark, but we were there a few weekends ago, and honest, it was a very easy walk from the train station to the museum. And the show itself is jaw dropping and must see. MUST SEE. Anyway, don’t be afraid to go to this event, because it sounds very worthwhile and it has a ginchy postcard:
