a bar napkin sketch from this weekend…

Monday links:

• You should head over to Kevin Huizenga’s blog and see the booklet he’s working on for the Center For Cartoon Studies.
• NYTimes profiles Deadwood, ponders the influence of The Searchers, and Salon proclaims the Western will never die and provides a great reading list to catch up.
• Some of my favorite Westerns, courtesy of YouTube: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, Once Upon A Time In The West, Dead Man, Deadwood, and Unforgiven.
• LCRW #18 is out.
• I’ve never owned a video gaming console before, but the supreme coolness of the Wii matched with the stress of doing this book makes me think I will soon.
• My Bloody Valentine, 1992. For noise last week it was Black Sabbath, this week it’s Tool.
• At the Independent, Saunders talks Carver.
