I don't believe volume 8 is out yet. Gonick is superb, but not prolific. I was in San Francisco last week, and the comic stores there did not have it (and surely they'd get it first, Rip Off being right there...) If you're dying for another fix of Gonick's excellent historical work, start following the "Whole Earth Review", which has a series by him on the American War for Independence. Good stuff. According to a programmer at Whole Earth, the latest issue ought to be out "any day now"; it's been shot and printed. -=- Tim Maroney, CMU Center for Art and Technology Tim.Maroney@k.cs.cmu.edu uucp: {seismo,decwrl,etc.}!k.cs.cmu.edu!tim CompuServe: 74176,1360 I am my own hunchbacked assistant.
