2. There's still a little time left to try to win a signed copy of Eisner-nominated comic book Sentences.

3. A "photo featured in Alberta's newest tourism campaign shows children running along a rugged beachfront, but it isn't from Alberta. The picture was shot near the village of Bamburgh in Northumberland, England, it's a famous beach, near Bamburgh Castle, known as the legendary home of Sir Lancelot." Photo link. (You know, a clever way to get publicity for something like the home of Lancelot would be to just make up a story like this.) Via.

Obey MODOK by Adam "Ape Lad" Koford for March MODOK Madness. Adam has various items on sale here.

You know it really was mysterious in the 90's to see Shepard Fairey's Obey logo around Los Angeles. I didn't know anyone who knew what they were, and it's not like you could just go onto the internet to find out.
