    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    I live near New Orleans -- after Katrina, EVERY shop shut down. It was months before any of them reopened, and for a long time we were afraid none of them would. Most of them didn't. I've really only got two options, although there are a couple of others within driving distance if I feel like a...

    What was the last Henson thing you bought?

    The Street Gang book, I suppose.

    I loved Hero Happy Hour! Any chance of it ever coming back?

    The MuppetCast - Show #91 - Down By The River

    I wish... if they ever come to New Orleans, though, I'm there!

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Marvel does have a big advantage there, though -- they can take the reigns and make the movies on their own. DC, unfortunately, is owned by Time Warner, so their properties are at the mercy of the parent company. But at least The Dark Knight rocked the house. So do I -- and so does a good...

    How big WERE the Gorgs?

    That is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thanks!

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    I don't know if I'd say a comic necessarily would be "perverse," but I agree with you about the art. I can understand why his Gonzo may not be popular, but honestly, I really like it.

    The MuppetCast - Show #91 - Down By The River

    Excellent show as usual, Steve. I'm glad you've got me hooked!

    ToughPigs - Book Club

    Ah, I remember that volume. One of the greatest epic tales of struggle and survival ever committed to the page! :super:

    The... -wait fer it-... "What made you laugh today?" Thread

    Mine is actually from last night, and it's kind of a long story. Y'see, a very dear friend of mine died on Sunday, and it's been a big bundle of tension at work (she and I were teachers at the same school). Last night, while at rehearsal for a play I'm in, another friend of mine told me her...

    How big WERE the Gorgs?

    Something that's always kinda nagged at me over the years... just exactly how big were the Gorgs supposed to be, anyway? I mean, they could hold a Fraggle in their hands like an action figure (y'know, had they ever actually caught one), but Fraggles are regular Muppet-sized. If the Gorgs are big...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    They're both flirting with it. Marvel has already bumped some of their higher-selling titles (and, as a result, those titles are no longer in my pull folder at the local comic shop). DC, to their credit, has at least given us more story pages whenever they've bumped the price... so far.

    Save the Fozzie Replica

    I voted, but I gotta tell ya, money is certainly an object for me. It'd certainly be worth the high price tag, but I'm a public school teacher. Dropping that kind of coin is a luxury.

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Longtime comic book nerd that I am, I'm pretty psyched for this one. I like the artwork I've seen so far, and the writer seems to have the right sensibility about the project. I'm especially happy that this (as well as the Pixar comics) are going to be $2.99 instead of Boom!'s usual $3.99...

    Hey, everyone. I discovered the show a couple of months ago and I've become a big fan. I'm about halfway through Street Gang at the moment -- I probably never would have known it was coming out if it weren't for the Muppetcast.
