Comic Picks By The Glick

It's not an unpleasant surprise, but it's still truly baffling nonetheless.  After none of the previous volumes even cracked it, vol. 10 of "Neon Genesis Evangelion:  The Shinji Ikari Raising Project" is now a #1 New York Times bestseller.  I believe it's also the first Dark Horse title to have that distinction and one of the few -- if only -- titles to crack the list in the past year.  For something like this to come out of nowhere... well, now I REALLY hope that Carl Horn returns to Fanime this year because I'd love to both congratulate him and find out how it happened in the first place.
