FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Garbage Time All-Stars is back on YAHOO! Sports

Josh Frankel and Mark Haven Britt's hilarious weekly full color comic
strip, GARBAGE TIME ALL–STARS is back for another NBA season on YAHOO!
Sports. It rejoins the YAHOO! Sports' official NBA basketball blog,
Ball Don't Lie, enjoyed by 2 million people every week.

GARBAGE TIME ALL–STARS is a quirky and irreverent take on current
events in NBA and fantasy basketball. Each week features a unique view
on everything from Yao's fantasy numbers to Stephon Marbury's benching
to Lebron's ego. Nothing is out of bounds.

"Josh and I love the NBA and thought it'd be fun to crack some jokes
about what goes on week in and week out. When we started doing the
strip on our own little blog, we had no idea how quickly people could
find it." says series artist Britt. "After YAHOO! hired us last year
and we found out how many people were seeing the strip we were
absolutely stunned. We're having a blast and we're psyched so many
people are digging what we do."

Josh Frankel has been a a stand-out on the independent comics scene in
recent years. Frankel is known for his wordless natural history
comics. One of which, TRILOBITE, was listed in Houghton-Mifflin's
Best American Comics 2007. Mark Haven Britt is a Xeric Award-winning
cartoonist whose debut graphic novel, FULL COLOR was published by
Image Comics. His follow up comic MONUMENT will hit stores this
summer.

GARBAGE TIME ALL–STARS is updated weekly at
