Every now and then Dave Kellett hits a grand slam (baseball or Denny’s – it’s all good) — today is one of those days.
Daytripper by Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá, is dang good. Just missed this when it came out but glad I grabbed a copy of the collected series. The structure of it is really interesting – -I guess the structure of the story is a bit of a spoiler? but it’s been out since 2011 so I’m not sure it’s a big deal. Every chapter the main dies but then it’s a meditation on life and death and so this is not so much a gimmick as a way to provoke thinking about the chapter you’ve just read.

Update in 2018: I haven’t checked back on the site in quite awhile so I have no idea if it was only down for a couple of days or years but hooray, it’s up again and the archives seem to be working well.

This unlicensed, not authorized short film from Joe Sill is really, really good. Sill is a professional director so it’s not entirely surprising that the film looks so good but he also gets pretty naturalistic performances from all three main characters (Kara, her Dad and the X-Wing Pilot).
Stumbled on to this new comic (through Piperka.net) which is really well drawn. It’s a bit of a predictable coming-of-age superhero-ish plot but it does have lots of odd touches, including the protagonist barfing up a very big hammer (hence the title) to use in fighting the bad guys. It barely has an archive so it’s a quick read right now and it’s entirely possible that it will start taking crazier and crazier left turns in the plot. I would check it out.
