I have a review of Anders Nilsen's mixed-media, part-comics memoir Don't Go Where I Can't Follow in this week's Las Vegas Weekly.
I have a rather long review of Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie and Mike Norton's Young Avengers #1 up at Robot 6 today.
And I have a review of Andy Runton's latest comic/kids book hybrid Owly and Wormy: Bright Lights and Starry Nights up at Good Comics For Kids.
And that's all I have today.

Is Owly moonlighting as a snack mascot...or does he have a brother in advertising?
At the grocery store today, I noticed this guy on the packaging for a box of Treasure Mills brand school lunch snacks:
He looked so much like Andy Runton's Owly that I had to stop and look extra closely to make sure it wasn't:
As you can see, the wings and feet are shaped differently. And, of course, the first orb-shaped owl is wearing a hat. So they're clearly not the exact same owl. But at the very least, they must be part of the same sub-species of cartoon owl, if not actually related, right?
