If you love Lark's artwork, please do yourself a favor and check it out. The first 11 issues are available as an oversized hardcover that is teeming with additional material about the world as well as the in-world ads the team puts together.

I would be genuinely intrigued to see a prose novel that tackles the Macao Accords themselves, and perhaps the immediate aftermath like the referenced chaos in Africa. I think seeing Carlyle's rise to power would be an excellent choice if he chooses to go that route.

Please, tell your friends about this comic.

Breaking Madden is the pinnacle of sports game journalism. It's really it's own weird comedic documentary series. I should not laugh as much or feel the emotions I do when I read gif-laden articles about pixellated men attempting to play football. But all the same, I do.

I understand Sony is hiring a talk show host and his schlubby producer to "interview" James Franco and Seth Rogen, at which point they are charged to "take them out." Presumably by Lizzy Caplan.

We have a note from Jean Kasem here, and she writes…

I am very much looking forward to the report of this May's upfronts wherein Les Moonves and Nina Tassler walk in aggressively chewing gum and wearing dark shades, drop mics, then strut out, leaving all critics with the rest of the day off.
