§ I'm sorry this is a weekly column now. But on the plus side, while I was googling around, I found these images of the ORIGINAL Kibbles 'n' Bits!
What's interesting is that in the "classic" version, the dog is clearly holding a plate in its mouth because the pooch just can't wait to tuck into some tasty kibbles 'n' bits. Int his modified version, the dog just has a plate under its chin which...makes less sense? Maybe it's because it contains string beans? Serous talk: I am NOT a dog person but do they really eat string beans?

§ The BBC has a short video interview with Attack on Titan creator Hajime Isayama, which I can't embed because BBC. Isayama talks about his struggles to get AoT published, and the rejection he faced, and confesses "My self esteem was so low when my editor showed interest I thought what's wrong with this guy." He says he thought he would end up working in a manga cafe because his art was considered so bad. This is the typical low self esteem expressed by cartoonists, so there is really no difference between manga and US comics. But who is laughing now, with AoT having sold some 52 million copies.
