| OK, what's with those round holes in the magazine? It's funny that they are incorporated in gags all over the book. |
|
| They're clearly part of the original production process since they're incorporated into the art. In the first issue they say their slogan is "the book with the hole in it" (and blame it on mice). I thought it might be for inserting in a binder but one hole wouldn't do that. |
