Pre-Order Secret Asian Man Trade at Amazon!

This is awesome!

I've been waiting for a collection of Tak Toyoshima's Secret Asian Man strips for a long time, and it looks like we're finally getting one just in time for the holidays. Secret Asian Man: The Daily Days will be available on December 14, but you can pre-order it now at Amazon. Tak took it upon himself to self-publish the book, and he's even taking PayPal orders at his website.

We can't wait to see his book sitting on our bookshelf (right next to Secret Identities, natch!)

SIUniverse Ballers: Week One Update

Considering that the NBA season is 82 games long, don't expect these updates to become a regular feature here at the SI blog. Still, I thought you might want to know how the teams are doing.

So far, Koji Steven Sakai's Team Rabbit, Ren Hsieh's The Royal We and Steve Nguyen's Steve Squad are the cream of the fantasy crop, posting seven or more category wins. Alas, the season's still young, and a lot can happen between now and April.
