Sunday Runaround – Angoulême Gets Plastered
AngoulêmeWatch: The weather has been driving everyone inside. Watch out – there have been reported floodings in some of the comics tents around the town. And comics and water, whatever the language, don't mix.
DrunkWatch: But there's more that water at the festival. CB Cebulski celebrates an innovation at the Soliel booth at Angoulême.
StreetWatch: And a couple more of those Angoulême street murals that people have been raving about.
Come on, San Diego, get that on the side of the Hyatt.

FilmWatch2: Oh good, Britain's getting Iron Man 2 a week before America. With Kick Ass coming out here two weeks before the US, is this a new superhero marketing strategy?
