A couple of months back I did a big writeup on Deluxe Paint to kick off my blog, Stone Tools. Like yourself, I found it to be just as great as I remembered it being.

Oh absolutely nuclear war. Between "The Day After," "A Boy and His Dog," "Mad Max," "WarGames," and this "children's" book I had, "The Nuclear War Fun Book" I was utterly convinced it was happening any minute now. cvltnation.com/when-it-was-...
