In A Word: Giggity

PHILADELPHIA – Steve White, editor of the upcoming "Family Guy" comic book, is keenly aware of the franchise's history of drawing laughs and making viewers cringe.

That's why he says the new series, published by Titan Comics and debuting July 27 in comic book shops and on newsstands, will not only uphold the TV tradition of the Emmy-nominated animated show but delve deeper into the characters and comedy of Peter Griffin, his family and friends.

"'The Family Guy' universe is an amazing wellspring of ideas to plunder. It's given us a lot of latitude to develop stories ranging from one-page gag strips to more extended full-length scripts and pretty much everything in between," he told The Associated Press Thursday.

This idea is freaking sweet.  Comics are getting a reboot among younger fans, and if executed properly this can give us even more fun.  I'm all for it, bring on the laughs!
