  6. Okay, I admit it. I don’t get Muse. I read it second hand from Phoenix, and then never return them.

    But Phoenix, Zyviva, and two other sources are chipping in and getting me a subscription as a birthday present! That’s so nice of them.

    Pecked to death. No, it’s the one after that.

    It would be interesting to hear which covers you like and which you don’t. (Rosanne and I won’t take it personally; we have nothing to do with the covers, just with the Q&A columns.)

  50. FEBRUARY! MUSE! PURE BLISS!

    Ehe, just got my issue a day or two ago. If you want me to be brutally honest about this (I’m sure a lot of hard work goes into making the covers), I usually don’t pay much attention to the covers. I look at them briefly, but I’m more focused on the content inside the cover than the cover itself.

    I’ll admit I wasn’t expecting to see Flo’s face and so my initial reaction was, Eeek! Creepy!, but I like the newest cover just as well as the old ones now that the shock has worn off, lol.

    I don’t know, perhaps the latest Koko & Co. was a little stranger than the previous ones, but it was still just as enjoyable as ever. The stranger the better is my policy! I know compliments make Mr. Gonick draw the Muses funny (I think that was included in a response to a fan letter quite a few issues ago, but maybe I’m imagining it), but seriously, Mr. Gonick is someone I really admire. Keep up the great work! :)

    Wow, that’s kind of scary now that I think about it. If I don’t brush my hair enough before bed, I wake up and find that I look a lot like Flo. o.O
