Best Comic of the Week:
Resident Alien: Your Ride’s Here #4 – Harry knows he’s got to get out of town in a hurry, because he’s sure he’s been discovered (Harry is an alien who has been living as a human doctor), but first he has to help find the little girl who was just kidnapped from her mother’s wedding. I love how Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse have expanded this book way beyond Harry’s story, making the cast a true ensemble.

Meanwhile, Droogâs leisurely delivery masks weighty rhy

Dump YOD: Krutoy Edition, but goes back even further on âPlease Listen To My Jew Tape,â released as Droog continues his celebration of Chanukah.
ADVERTISEMENT Tape recounts the struggle of trying to make it as a rapper with buzz, weighing label interest with the desire to control one s own destiny. Droog rhymes about rapping to just about anyone including fugazi label executives who urge him to replicate the strategies of the then just-emerging Tyler, the Creator, and A$AP Rocky. It s not easy to see the train leave the station, especially if you could have bought a ticket. Watched their success to remind me, he raps, seen them living good when I was living grimy. But Droog p
