Housekeeping:
This feature will be taking a break for the month of December — if you have events during that month, get them to me as soon as you can. And I do plan on getting back to writing reviews and other things. It’s been a hectic few months.
Have comic news or events related to the D.C. area to share? Email me! Submit no later than Monday at 9 p.m. for inclusion each Tuesday, but the earlier, the better! More information is here.
