In his book, Douglas Wolk makes an interesting observation about comics culture:
“a culture that really does privilege deep knowledge of its history and present . . . [encouraging] unmitigated enthusiasm and unmuted pleasure, especially because those are mocked by other subcultures that don’t permit them.”

Tyler calls out the PMA for gouging visitors with a whopping $22/person ticket price for their latest Cezanne show:
“The Philadelphia Museum of Art is a nonprofit housed in city-owned buildings. It gets about $2.4 million a year from the city and has received millions more in capital funding, with more on the way. So its willingness to effectively redline certain residents out of its programming is improper.”
