11. Batiuk had his own battle with cancer
after he did Lisa's first round with it.

I think it's interesting that he's depicting Death as a masked man in a tux.

My local rag still carries it, but I was able to keep up with the storyline through the Seattle P-I website while I was out of town.

I often wonder why our "pro life" government will spend money to kill people, & cut funding & veto programs like sCHIP that will actually save lives.
