Time for another forgotten classic from the vast Again With the Comics archives. Here we present Dostoyevsky Comics, originally printed in Drawn and Quarterly #3 (2000), and currently out-of-print, as far as I know. Crime and Punishment, originally written by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, was brilliantly adapted here by R. Sikoryak, as seen through a Dick Sprang Batman filter. This marriage of Classic Russian Literature and the Caped Crusader of Gotham also serves as further proof, if any were needed, that everything is better with Batman.

I guess Erin’s not the only one: Exhibit A, Exhibit B.

We have MSNBC on in the background; it’s Matthews + Olbermann, already a pretty solid pair, backed up by Williams, Russert, and Brokaw. Predictably, we’re making snarky comments in-between interesting developments. (Will be updated.)

[7:12] <d> Goode, Weed in Virginia? Seriously?


[7:20] <e> It’s no surprise that Count Chocula is losing. But that he’s a Republican?

<d> Sure, why not?

<e> Yeah, I guess. Old European money. Ancien régime.

<d> Whereas top military brass like Cap’n Crunch are abandoning the GOP, hoping for some Congressional oversight into foreign policy.


[7:45] <d> Not snarky: CNN has the best Web-based interface for tracking the returns as they come in. Here’s the county-by-county TX-22 breakdown, as well as TX-07 and TX-18 (our district).


[8:55] <d> Texas governor’s race called for Perry. Lampson starting to pull away from Sekula-Gibbs, especially in Brazoria (by an order of magnitude in that county with 5% reporting).


[9:50] <d> Hey, Kinky: Thanks for being Chris Bell’s Ross Perot. (Although according to CNN’s exit poll, voters would still narrowly have chosen Perry if there had been no independents in the race.)


[10:07] <d> This one’s for e: How would your favorite superhero vote? “Batman follows his own moral compass, and Batman is always right.”


[11:59] <d> This is getting less snarky all the time, isn’t it? Fatigue, I suppose, has set in. Avi Rubin (CS prof at JHU and director of ACCURATE) has written about his experiences at the polls today in Maryland.


[1:44] <d> Unofficial results for Harris County (including ballot measures, all of which seem to have passed) are here (in PDF and HTML).


[2:38] <d> So that’s basically it, then: It’s down to Virginia for the Senate race. Expect lawyers, computer scientists, and everyone else to descend on the great Commonwealth this week.
