Barry first found music when he borrowed his sister's record collection when he was about eight and was hooked. When Caroline started it was a new beginning, and he listened to all the stations, but Caroline was his favourite by far. Later he became a singer in a band, then started doing discos when he was 18.

For this month’s (not that we’re on any kind of schedule anymore, hehe) Four-Color Flashback, Paul, Arlo, and Eric are scurrying over to the first three volumes of David Petersen’s Mouse Guard. Published from 2006-13 by BOOM! Studios, Petersen’s medieval epic takes place in a world devoid of humans, where a civilization of mice attempt to survive harsh weather, even harsher predators, and each other. The gang discusses the many, gloriously illustrated sequences of absolutely brutal animal-on-animal violence; Petersen’s awe-inspiring attention to detail, including a number of songs and poems that enrich the culture of his world; and Paul’s newfound obsession with the series and its many ancillary offshoots.
NEXT: we’re going back…to That Was Then! We’re celebrating the 40th anniversary of Robert Zemeckis’ classic blockbuster Back to the Future.
