| The Spiders: an online comic |

| Fred, feel of course free to delete this or move it, if you consider this offtopic, but I thought people might like my posting this even though it’s not a news item. It’s a science-fictional online comic (in progress) concerning an AU version of the war on Afghanistan. I found it quite interesting. First chapter is here: al Jihad And the overall table of contents is here. As a sidenote, the pages are large and take a while to load in a slow connection. |

| #5 I just love the line "And God HATES these oranges." :-) I remember it whenever I hear of someone claiming that God despises/finds abominable something or other -- whether that's homosexuality, or women driving, or the Jews having a state, or whatever. "And God HATES these oranges!" :-) |

| #3 the weird drug/mind enhancement-side-effect is already a cliche. Yeah, I can't smell the yellow anymore either. |

| #2 I am impressed by what is being done with the "comic" medium today, whether "graphic novel", online or, for example, with anime. That being said, one gripe: the weird drug/mind enhancement-side-effect is already a cliche. I actually lose enthusiasm for a story when I run across it. Maybe I'm just too old... |
