Kevin at the <a href="http://www.newsaramablog.com/2006/07/18/my-name-is-earl-the-comic-book/" rel="nofollow">Newsarama blog</a> lightly questions the choice, but sitcoms make great adaptations, because the only consistency that matters is the characters. An issue can be like another episode without worrying too much about tightly coordinating (which, with Hollywood, isn't going to happen). Lyle, what a great plan!

Then again, maybe I'll be impatient -- buy the first issue to satisfy my curiosity and leave it on a BART train for someone else to find and read.

If I like what I see, I will definitely pick up the book. I think there is a lot of potential for a great comic if they get the right creative time. I hope they go for something stylized like the Clerks cartoon and not something photo-realistic. Johanna, I am one of those evil people who will wait for the trade.

I love all the characters. Plus I'm a sucker for good redemption comedy. Johanna, this is the only show I watch on the big three. I love all the characters.
