Love Hate Relationship

I met Peter Bagge a few years ago. The libertarian world is small enough that sooner or later we all meet each other. But I'd been a fan of his work for years. His observational stuff, especially Buddy Bradley, is as good as Harvey Pekar's, while keeping one foot in the wilder world of "comic" comic books, especially with his delightful graphic style.

So I guess it's good news to see his comic, The Bradleys, will be an animated series. There have been other adaptations of stuff I liked that didn't work out so well, but with Bagge behind it, I hope he can translate his quirky sense of humor to the small screen.
