ditching parties to stay home and read we3, am i doing this “college” thing right?
Reading the new “deluxe” version of We3 right before Action Comics #1 probably didn’t do any favours for the “action” in the latter comic, but then again reading any version of We3 before any other comic is always going to set the bar pretty fucking high.
We3 vs college parties is a whole other argument though, one I don’t feel best qualified to comment on now that I am officially old!

“What really happened in 1998?” - I dunno, but it seems like a pertinent question given that I seem to be floating in the tumblr tank trying to piece the nineties together this morning…

Comics We Love: ‘We3,’ The Heartbreaking Story of Cuddly Killing Machines
Run, run, run to your nearest comics retailer to pick up the new We3: Deluxe Edition this week and you will be treated to the most heartfelt, kinetic, violent, and universal lost-animals-going-home-story ever told. A compact slice of minimalist storytelling mastery, We3 is Milo & Otis meets “Call of Duty”: a simple, touching story of three scared animals looking for a home remixed to the mayhem of the first-person shooter. And if you’re wily enough to pick up the hardcover Deluxe Edition, you will be treated to no less than 10 pages of story that previously went unpublished. I know!
But We3 is more than a cute and fuzzy tale wrapped in latex and razorblades. It just may be the very best comic to introduce a new audience to the uniqueness and potential of the modern medium…
Back in the heady, exciting days of “comics activism,” there was a frequent topic of discussion on the boards: what was the best comic to hand to a non-reader to get them interested in comics? Answers were all across the spectrum, from sensible to quirky to seriously? (Really? Palookaville?) The consensus opinion, though, was that the book would have to be short, self-contained, non-superhero story that appealed to an audience of all tastes and ages.

Can’t wait to get my hands on a copy of the collected edition of Flex Mentallo - with its mix of pop philosophy, obscure biography and four colour madness, it’s the book Morrison thought he was writing with Supergods.
The secret ingredient is Frank Quitely, I guess!
