@homegurl the current is amazing. every time i read it, i am amazed that we have such awesome and intelligent people here.
@amen the current is powerhouse every time
@The cover is priceless. I saw the original on display =)
@covergirl Can you explain the cover and what it parodies? I can’t place it but it looks very familiar…
@It's part of a two(?) panel comic entitled “Superman commits suicide” or something very similar. The original panels were on display at the Jewish Museum, during a comic art exhibition – which may or may not still be going on.
@chris ware Called ‘Superman’s Suicide.’ By Chris Ware, who did the Jimmy Corrigan graphic novel. It has at least three panels. The Current front cover displayed one, the back cover displayed another, but there are even more that explain\hint at why Superman committed suicide.
@mlp They actually are part of the plot of Jimmy Corrigan and are from the book itself. The graphic novel is absolutely worth a read, but it’s very long and very, very depressing.
@mlp The two panels are actually part of the graphic novel Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth by Chris Ware. And sadly, the comics exhibition closed in January.
@um, i still read animorphs above my covers, because they are that awesome
@o rly? “the current: journal of contemporary politics, culture, and jewish affairs.”
i’ve had numerous affairs with jewish girls during my sinful academic career at columbia, and still haven’t seen my name show up once in that journal. shoddy, irresponsible journalism, if you ask me.
@um, This came out last semester.
@so? still hadn’t been swiftcurrented
@animorphs! animorphs!

@kazzy WHERE IS THE BELLE JAR? I WANT MORE BELLE JAR!
