Justice, Masthead Style

Posted by J. Timothy King

Magazine Man recently posted a particularly good story on his blog Somewhere on the Masthead. Actually, everything he posts is particularly good, and we’re fortunate to have him in the blogosphere. But this story, in particular, is particularly good. It’s the true story of a bully, a hero, and a jackass with a little power and a lot of empty where his self-esteem ought to be. This story made me fume. It made me cry. It made me smile.

Six parts:

  1. In Which McGruff Takes A Bite Out of My Ass…
  2. In Which I Cross the Line…
  3. In Which Justice Is Blind, Deaf, and DUMB…
  4. In Which Scrappers Show Their Scars…
  5. In Which No Good Deed…
  6. In Which Everything Feels Normal…Almost TOO Normal…
