Evil Inc Monthly is a pre-release of all of the Evil Inc strips scheduled for the upcoming month — plus a special bonus feature created from the archive of the comic. Evil Inc is a corporation run for super-villains by super-villains.
The December Evil Inc comic is 22 pages, and it concludes the Christmas storyline in which one of Santa’s elves talks with Oscar and Oliver about his life. Next, an unassuming lunch break serves as to the lead-in to a storyline that will arc over much of the upcoming year — the Ul’Thax Proposal!
Finally… in the bonus feature, Tales from the Evil Inc Archive, I remember a warmer holiday season when I took my family to Walt Disney World for Christmas. It resulted in a terrific storyline that I hope you enjoy.

The thought-provoking, aesthetically pleasing animated films of Hayao Miyazaki attract audiences well beyond the director’s native Japan.
Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away were critically acclaimed upon U.S. release, and the earlier My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki’s Delivery Service have found popularity with Americans on DVD.
This critical study of Miyazaki’s work begins with an analysis of the visual conventions of manga, Japanese comic books, and anime; an overview of Japanese animated films; and a consideration of the techniques deployed by both traditional cel and computer animation. This section also details Miyazaki’s early forays into comic books and animation, and his output prior to his founding of Studio Ghibli.
Part Two concentrates on the Studio Ghibli era, outlining the company’s development and analyzing the director’s productions between 1984 and 2004, including Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro and his newest film, Howl’s Moving Castle. The second section also discusses other productions involving Studio Ghibli, including Grave of the Fireflies and The Cat Returns.
Appendices supply additional information about Studio Ghibli’s merchandise production, Miyazaki’s global fan base, and the output of other Ghibli directors.

From 1985 to 1995, the syndicated comic strip Calvin and Hobbes followed the antics of a precocious six-year-old boy and his sardonic stuffed tiger. At the height of its popularity, the strip ran in more than 2,400 newspapers and generated a fan base that continues to run in the millions.
This critical analysis of Calvin and Hobbes explores Calvin’s world and its deep reservoir of meanings. Close readings of individual strips highlight the profundity of Calvin’s world with respect to a number of life’s big questions, including the things that one values, friendship, God, death, and other struggles in life.
By engaging with Calvin and Hobbes as more than “just” a comic strip, this work demonstrates how the imagination remains an invaluable resource for making sense of the world.
