If you live in New York, you may think that the New York Post is officially off its rocker. Today's cover resembles an extreme tabloid, ala The National Enquirer. It's covered with stories about freaks of nature that are on the Pentagon payroll... but it's all fake. Comedy Central bought fake covers to advertise David Cross' new animated series, Freak Show. The previews for the show make it look like it's a band of freaks who try to be superheroes. Comedy Central is also distributing more than one million copies of a Freak Show comic book written by Cross and co-creator H. Jon Benjamin (the comic is also on the website).Freak Show debuts tomorrow, October 4th on Comedy Central at 10:30 pm, right after the return of South Park.

From all the promos I have seen, this show looks incrediably stupid. Even more so than Drawn Together. Of course, I will wait until tommorow night to officially rule the show in or out, however, it dosen't look very promising

Does anyone know how to get hold of a copy of the comic book? If I'm to understand, it was printed by Marvel... Anyone got any clue where one can be purchased?!?
