yep. based on the Charles Burns comics, although I didn't know it at the time. also had cool stuff by Richard Sala and several other underground comic artists.

they also ran some other Mike Judge shorts, including Inbred Jed and the Milton shorts that led to Office Space.

I've recently befriended former Cracked and Marvel editor/writer/artist Mort Todd, who was close to the guy who did the Brad Dharma short on LTV. guy's name escapes me but he's dead now.

in cheerier news Liquid TV is coming back with new stuff for the hulu site.
