In this book you’ll come across a lot of ideas and a lot of questions covering a range of topics and styles of thinking. What does M*A*S*H have in common with The Muppets? Is it ever OK for a rock fan to like country music? Why doesn’t Tintin have a girlfriend? Why does Mark Millar make such violent comics? What do H.P. Lovecraft and Conan the Barbarian have to do with one another? Why might a grown woman fill her home with Buffy the Vampire Slayer toys? You may even come across a few answers.
