I totally want to see this but I don’t know where it’s playing!

Every so often I see a particular truck on the freeway- around the Tennyson exit on 880 South, and usually around 9:30 am.

The back of it has an ad for I think a show on the Food Network- it’s a giant photo of Wolfgang Puck the size of the entire back of the truck.

Except the truck is so dirty the whole photo is gray – except where some wag has cleared the dirt into the shape of round glasses and a missing tooth. Come to think of it, maybe it’s all the teeth but one?

Last I saw it was on Tuesday. I wonder how many of the same cars I see every day on the freeway?

I just finished the entire 38-issue run of Harley Quinn (minus issues 22 and 28).

I won’t spoil it for you, but the ending is very dark. And very sudden…

there isn’t a very good wrap-up, and some key loose ends are never addressed. What happens to the Joker? What about the detective love interest?

They set up a lot of new characters for a continuing series- Doc, Detective whatsisface, the little girl… and then they dropped them. I am assuming there was an actual description of where Poison Ivy went to in another DC title. Otherwise, Harley Quinn is like a very dark noir with no real ending.

Was it meant to be like this? Or is this a symptom of the title’s cancellation? Maybe the storyline was meant to be longer, and this was the “shorter version” ? What is the deal with the imagery in the last issue?
