Hey, the link to the fantagraphics blog in the love and rockets post (http://www.fantagraphics.com/blog/) has been pretty helpful, if by helpful you mean "good PR to manipulate me to buy stuff." What new FG titles do you get?

I haven't bought one in a while, but I'm thinking of getting the David Heatley comics (the highlight of the Mcswnys issue and Kramer's Erogt 5). I'm also considering the Mark Newgarden, Carol Tyler, and R. Kukuo Johnson stuff. Any thoughts? Does anyone get the anthology books, like Ignatz or Mome?

I bought the Rocky book because of Fanta's blog, and I don't regret it! Hoping hard for a paperback on the Carol Tyler collection. Ignatz is a line, not an anthology. First Mome was pretty good, the magazineyness of the interview material appealed particularly.

Hey--thanks for the comment. Was the first MOME slight? It seemed like every other cool indie comic from the flip-through in the store. w/r/t Ignatz--I guess I meant anthology in the sense that the titles aren't about a set subject matter, but change to showcase different artists. Isn't Ignatz the one where they showcase european artists?
