Well, about 19% of eligible voters in the first atypically-populated state with way too much power to decide the country’s fate have spoken, Presidential campaign-wise, and rendered moot at least three candidates on the Democratic side, who are no longer Biden their time as they Dodd-er back to Washington with Gravel-y voices.  Thank goodness Kucinich didn’t drop out yet, his name is awfully hard to pun.  Meanwhile, a couple of our weekly ComicMix columnists have become a bit political of late; with the campaign season being so long there’s almost sure to be more where that came from.  Here’s what we’ve given you this past week:

• Mike Gold – Whizzy’s Wazoo #47: The Happy Optimist
• Dennis O’Neil – The Four-Color Answer #47: Leveling down
• Me – It’s All Good #46: Everything Old is New (Year) Again
• John Ostrander – Tales From The O-zone #47: Solitary Pleasures
• Michael Davis – Straight, No Chaser #47: I Like Sex
• Martha Thomases – Brilliant Disguise #38: Leader of the Pack
• Michael A. Price – Forgotten Horrors #38:  A Deeper Origin of the Asian Horror-Film Phenomenon
• Ric Meyers – DVD XTra #31: Resident Dragon Extinction

Say, did you know there was also a Republican caucus in Wyoming?  How come Iowa and New Hampshire get all the press?  (Just ’cause Wyoming Democrats caucus separately, two months from now?) If I were Cheyenne I would sue.

While it’s been a rather quiet week news-wise, our weekly ComicMix columns have seen lots of activity.  We were particularly honored to host an online wake of sorts last Thursday, reuniting members of the old CompuServe Comics and Animation Forum (myself included) in the comments section of John Ostrander’s touching remembrance of Paul "Zeus" Grant.  Here’s what else we’ve written for you this past week:

• Mike Gold – Whizzy’s Wazoo #46: An Editor’s Night Before Christmas
• Dennis O’Neil – The Four-Color Answer #46: Little Ditty About Danny and Fred
• Me – It’s All Good #45: ‘Zat You, Santy Claus?
• John Ostrander – Tales From The O-zone #46: Zeus, In Passing
• Michael Davis – Straight, No Chaser #46: The Top 10 Reasons I’m Glad it’s 2008
• Martha Thomases – Brilliant Disguise #37: What are you doing New Year’s Eve?
• Michael A. Price – Forgotten Horrors #37: Bamboozled by Bat Masterson
• Ric Meyers – DVD XTra #30: Leftovers/Third Helpings

We wish everyone all you wish for yourselves in 2008 and beyond.

On the off-chance that anyone else out there is spending their Christmas holiday engaged in online reading rather than in more traditional pursuits (eating, opening pressies, eating, singing carols, eating, watching heartwarming holiday specials on TV, and eating), we herewith present this past week’s ComicMix columns:
