The super-fun world of Marlys!

I'm a big Lynda Barry fan, as many people know, but for some reason I forget to check out her Marlys Magazine. I do have Lynda Barry marked as one of my favorite eBay sellers so I occasionally check out the original drawings she's selling there, but I don't need to buy one, since we bought a personalized one back in 1999 when she was still offering them.

Marlys Magazine does link to her eBay auctions, but it has much more than that, including links to her recent Ernie Pook strips. My favorites are still the ones about Marlys and Maybonne.

It's an unfair world in which Paris Hilton is a mega-millionaire and Lynda Barry (I presume) is not. Who has given more to society, I ask you? Barry's strips strike at your heart, and they're better than a personal photo album for making you remember the agonies and ecstasies of childhood.
