Weekend Happening Alert! Sam Brown, and Andy Bell (capital fellows, both) have a gallery show called Progress running through October, but if memory serves the openings of these things usually feature BEER. So if you’re in Burbank this Sunday Saturday, check out the awesome.

In other news:

• This is why I subscribe: Achewood interview in Wednesday’s print edition of The Onion. Pity I’ll be away from home when it arrives.
• Woulda missed it if not for Dirk Deppey: Steve Bennett on Webcomics as Harbinger of The Future. Interesting stuff.
• Hey! Another Chris Baldwin interview! It’s almost like the guy is super-talented or something.
• And an interesting themed sketchbook from SDCC: Santos Gaitan at Paperninja.net with sketches on the theme of grass (heads-up courtesy of Jason “Phatcat” Castillo).
• And finally, to all those Questionable Content fans who were horribly offended by Randy Milholland’s brilliant guest strip, you probably ought not check out today’s even funnier offering from Chris Hastings and Carly Monardo. In fact, if you’re offended by these strips, you really ought to consider one last quote from last week at Comic-con:

Jeph Jacques, on people about to be offended by these strips — I wouldn’t run ‘em if I didn’t think they were hilarious. I love it when [guest artists] abuse my characters.
