And courtesy of shweta_narayan, the webcomic that ate my life yesterday: Family Man. The Enlightenment! Judaism! University politics! Theological debates! In-jokes about Ovid! In-jokes about Rousseau! Careful research of taxonomically appropriate pine trees! Our half-Jewish protagonist just tried to defend a dissertation on Spinoza at Göttingen in 1768. The werewolves at his new lectureship are the least of his problems.

In the meantime, Kate Beaton has been reviewed by The Economist.
