Man, as a great Muppet fan I do love this series.

It would have been cool to see the REAL Muppets show up and give their unique opinions on this series.

Nice report and great photos, but why were the Marvel all-ages book (Thor: The Mighty Avenger) and its artist (Chris Samnee) that Langridge discusses not named here? Could the writer or, more importantly, the editor just not be bothered to look up the info? If it was deemed irrelevant given the focus of the panel, why then include the mention of them in the first place? Strange ...

The Muppet Show is one of my favorite books.

(Which Doctor was Kermit dressed as? I'm going to guess either the Fourth or one of the new ones, Eleventh or maybe Tenth.)

Where would be a good place to start reading The Muppet Show? I really like Langridge on Thor and I like the Muppets a lot so I figure I should start reading.

[Ben Akers]

I would suggest starting at the beginning with the first trade Meet the Muppets because you don't want to miss any of Roger Langride's Muppet stories, but you could probably pick up Issue #8 and be okay.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll pick up issue 8 next time I'm in the shop and probably work backwards and forwards from there.
