Bought a few things from Atomic Books. Most excited about Chris Ware's Acme Novelty Library collection. Encased in a beautiful red folio with elegant gold foil details, the loneliness obsessed creations of Ware are featured in strips such as "Rusty Brown." I've been fascinated with his simple art matched to some verbose diatribes. However, the best thing about Ware's work is his use of font and layout. Here's the wikipedia entry about Ware. For some representative artwork, click here.
Also, have you seen the website "Stuff On My Cat" (or Stuff + Cats = Awesome)? I think it rivals Hitler Cats for feline hilarity, so check it out.
