![]() Two great tastes that don’t most people don’t think to put together.Īt least that’s what I thought until I picked up my first 100 Bullets trade paperback collection, First Shot, Last Call (DC Comics/Vertigo, 2000). Kind of like peanut butter and mayonnaise. Ditto with Max Allan Collins’ Road to Perdition, brought to the screen by Sam Mendes. (Not knocking Christopher Nolan’s reimagining of the series, though-that was cool.) And while Sin City has been around since the early 1990s, I’m willing to bet you never heard of it until this past April, when Robert Rodriguez showed us his version of Frank Miller’s noirville where blood runs in both red and yellow. Batman calls himself a “detective,” and he’s certainly tough, but there’s all that fetishistic rubber to deal with. Yeah, yeah, I know-Mickey Spillane got his start in the comics, and his illustrated private eye Mike Danger eventually begat Mike Hammer. Hardboiled comic fans are a rare breed tough guys don’t usually do funnybooks. ![]() SHOOT TO THRILL: Brian Azzarello’s 100 Bullets : An Appreciation This originally appeared in issue 8 (Sept/Oct 2005) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The night that Arthur is proclaimed leader, Lancelot tells Elaine that he will be sent to win over Lodengrance because he will be needed at Arthur's round table.

Written between the first presidential campaign of Bill Clinton and the electoral crisis of 2000, The Last Empire is a sweeping coda to the last century’s conflicted vision of the American dream. Recently, while packing for a move, I came across a letter that Gore Vidal sent me from his home in Ravello, Italy, in the late 1990s. From his celebrated profiles of Clare Boothe Luce and Charles Lindbergh and his controversial essay about the Bill of Rights–which sparked an extended correspondence with convicted Oklahoma City Bomber Timothy McVeigh–to his provocative analyses of literary icons such as John Updike and Mark Twain and his trenchant observations about terrorism, civil liberties, the CIA, Al Gore, Tony Blair, and the Clintons, Vidal weaves a rich tapestry of personal anecdote, critical insight, and historical detail. ![]() In the essays collected here, Vidal brings his keen intellect, experience, and razor-edged wit to bear on an astonishing range of subjects. A new collection of provocative, witty, and eloquent essays by Gore Vidal. Vidal devotes several chapters to the Gore family and does a good job of analyzing his fifth cousin Al Gore who served as Vice President under Clinton. ![]() ![]() United States: Essays, 1952-1992, Random House (New York, NY), 1992.
