wktf will be out again today...
Yo, our brother wktf won't be reviewing any new books today. He did do a spectacular review on an old Byrne She-hulk tpb, and wrote a great mini essay on Byrne and his current behovior vs. his body of work. That will be posted up later today.
A sudden and terrible tragedy has happened to his family (not his immediate family, but a tragedy nontheless). I don't want to talk about it, because it is not my place, so please don't ask and don't bother him with PM's or anything right now.
Anyway, sorry to get kinda heavy, but my thoughts and feelings go out to my brother wktf and his family. I'll let you all know when he comes back.
I'll do my best to keep up the high standard of quaity that wk sets with his reviews, no one I have met has his historical knowlege and gift of putting it in proper context with todays books. The cat works his but off in the corporate world, and then stays up till midnight to share his experience with us, and loves every second of it. He is definately one of the people who make this board a worthwhile place to hang out.

I want to second Fuie's thoughts and Sam's sentiments. Joe is an absolute class act.
