No Journalista Today

The last round of difficulties I encountered with my computer were a sign, and I was too thick to see it. Yesterday, my hard drive died, and I’ve spent the last 18 hours buying a new one, installing the operating system and realizing that I hadn’t backed up my files since the last time I had to do this. Conclusion: I am an idiot.

All apologies — ¡Journalista! returns Tuesday morning. As a consolation prize, here’s a weird panel from the pre-Code crime-comics series Ken Shannon…

Note: This has sat on my back-up drive for a while, and may have originally been pulled from someone else’s blog. If so, my apologies. E-mail me a link and I’ll post it here. (Update: Image courtesy of Dorian Wright; thanks to Daniel B.T. for pointing it out.)
