    I hope that’s popcorn and not cheese curds, or Mr. Lux will be Mr. Deluxe.

    After 2020, I called 2021 “twenty twenty won,” and then after 2021, I named 2022 “twenty twenty, too.” Sigh.

    I found when trying to find cityscapes in the old strips, there really isn’t many of them. Gould drew a lot of wide shots from the bird’s eye view (which, knowing he wasn’t an overly confident artist, could be his trick to hide horizon lines). However he chose his angles, what it does do is creates a claustrophobic world of frantic action and intimate crime.
