I confess to being late coming to the fold of Stephen Colbert fans.  It was an article in Newsweek early this year that brought him to my attention.

Before getting his own show, Colbert was, of course, on The Daily Show.  Steve Carell (who, by coincidence, graduated from the same high school that I did in Massachusetts*) was also on the show, but he left to join the cast of The Office.

Lately Jon Stewart, perhaps feeling nostalgic for the good old days, has been running clips of Steven and Stephen in action together.  Click the picture to watch.  Some of this is outright hilarious comedic acting.

This Week’s Comics

Lately, the fun in the Sunday comics hasn’t been in the strips, which are mostly mediocre, but with a comic-book that’s being inserted with the flyers.  It features reprints of the earliest Spider-Man stories by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.

Each comic is 16 pages total, the printing quality is excellent and, hey, they’re free!  This nifty promotion is from SmartSource, the coupon distributor.  To see a list of all the participating newspapers, click here.
