Sometimes a joke is just in the air: Interesting how their construction of the joke is almost entirely in different directions: Penny Arcade starting off with the inappropriately not stealthy character from The Last Of Us videogame and I Am Arg! using a similar image as its punchline.

Dicebox by Jenn Manley Lee is The Grapes of Wrath crossed with Star Wars.  And I’ve read large chunks of it at two different times – it just doesn’t always serialize that well.  It’s definitely a story that needs to be read in at least chapters to get sucked into it. I’ve been re-reading it from the start over at Comic Rocket which will help me from losing my place in it.  I’m only about a little more than a quarter of the way through it’s almost 400 page archive.
