Still slow going around these parts, but have these tidbits to keep you warm during the cold season: Not strictly comics-related, but the work of Monty Python is close enough to our hearts here at ComicMix that we’d feel remiss in not wishing them a happy 40th anniversary– the first episode of Flying Circus aired…
