Description: Does comic art belong in museums? If you saw the Marvel Universe of Super Heroes show at MoPOP or any of the other great exhibits cropping up in museums and galleries worldwide, your answer is probably a resounding “YES!” Join award-winning graphic novelist Ellen Forney, MoPOP curator Brooks Peck and Manager/Curator of the Fantagraphics Book Store and Gallery Larry Reid in conversation with author/journalist Rob Salkowitz (FORBES, Full Bleed) for a great discussion of the history and issues around bringing comic art behind the velvet rope of museums, galleries and public spaces.

A clear runner-up for 1987 is now-legendary instigator Marley Marl. A year before the Juice Crew founder earned his crown by giving hip-hop “The Symphony” and debut albums by Big Daddy Kane and Biz Markie, he was the man behind Heavy D’s street breakout hit “The Overweight Lover’s in the House” and Kool G Rap’s B-side PSA “Rikers Island.” Most significantly, he was a contributor to one of the decade’s greatest rap albums, Eric B & Rakim’s Paid In Full. While the Roxanne Wars were running out of steam, Hurby “Luv Bug” Azor saw an opportunity to season the gender beef with Salt-N-Pepa. Powered by broad ears, the Haitian Brooklynite gave us tracks that were as fresh as they were refreshing—most notably, “Push It.” Meanwhile, up in Mount Vernon, Heavy D’s DJ Eddie F was coming into his own as the soon-to-be “untouchable” composer manned the lion’s share of the production on Heav’s debut, Livin’ Large. —Bonsu Thompson

For those looking to go big on New Year’s Eve, Big Night San Diego can’t be beat. The event (now celebrating its 15th year) will feature eight dance floors and ten separate “party areas.” If you tend to get thirsty, all drinks are included with every ticket purchase. The cheapest entry into the event is (currently) $89.99 with admittance after 11 pm. On the other end of the spectrum, the “Velvet Rope” option will cost you about $240 and features “an additional 1 hour of upscale food & beverage service from 8:00 – 9:00pm.” If you are planning on partying into 2019, the Hilton is offering discounted rooms for Big Night guests. All ticket prices will be increasing as the event approaches.

"I felt such a strong love for her, but we didn’t have a lot of interests in common," Bundy said in the tapes. "Like politics or something, I don’t think we had in common. She liked to read a lot. I wasn’t into reading."

Both companies’ emphasis on “flexibility” helps obscure an ugly truth: Homeownership is out of the picture for many millennials, making renting a necessity rather than a choice. More than one-third of American heads of household rented their home in 2016, the highest rate since 1965, according to a 2017 report by Pew. The same report found that 65 percent of households headed by people under 35 were rentals. Race and generational wealth play a part in this as well: black and Latino households were twice as likely as white households to rent their homes, according to the report.

“I don’t ever recommend sleeping in any brand of SOFT contact lenses. The risks outweigh the benefits every time,” Vollmer said on Facebook. “It takes seconds to remove your contacts but a potential lifetime of irreversible damage if you choose to leave them in. People need to see these images and remind themselves/family/friends to also be aware of contact lens misuse.”

When Kanye West said, “I miss the old Kanye, chop-up-the-soul Kanye” in 2016, he was talking about 2004. As most of us know by now, he stepped into the game as a producer first, and that facet remains the most prominent part of his artistic character. His debut studio album, The College Dropout, demonstrated his obsession with digging through crates to find the most soul-penetrating samples possible. The album was our introduction to the pure musicality that exists within the flesh and bones of Kanye, a kind of hip-hop talent that hadn’t appeared before (and hasn’t appeared since).
