Yes, it's sad but there are some good laughs too, especially if you are a music/pop culture freak.

Originally Posted By alexbook Not sure if it counts, exactly, but I just picked up a copy of William Joyce's "A Day with Wilbur Robinson." It's the children's picture book that "Meet the Robinsons" is (loosely) based on. I'm giving it to my nephew for his 5th birthday.

Originally Posted By alexbook ^--I'd heard that. I read Wes Abbott's "Dogby Walks Alone" yesterday, and really enjoyed it. It's a manga-style graphic novel and is supposed to be the first in a series. The hero is a CM at "Happyland," where "Princess" has been murdered. Imagine Clint Eastwood inside a Pluto costume. Sort of a film noir/theme park/video game mystery/action/comedy.

I am just getting to the "what happened that made him think about creating Disneyland now. Judging by the previous chapters this will go for quite a few pages.
