Summary: Virtual Meltdown is a re-packaging of two separately published Epic "graphic novels," as a signed limited edition (1500 copies). The first one, Chaos begins with a brief musing by the artist Giraud/Moebius on the topic of aging. The second, called Metallic Memories, provides an even briefer piece by Giraud on his Moebius style. There is no overall narrative. Sources for the previously published drawings are given, and about a third of the drawings are from private sketchbooks.

Virtues

According to The New Columbia Encyclopedia, Plato's cardinal virtues were wisdom or prudence, courage, temperance, and justice. The apostle Paul then added faith and hope, and charity (which some translate as "love" or "mercy") to make the seven popularized by Dante. The Boy Scout Law later contributed twelve more (though some approach paraphrase of the earlier seven): Trustworthiness, loyalty, helpfulness, friendliness, courtesy, kindness, obedience, cheerfulness, thrift, bravery, cleanliness and reverence. The list will extend, because in normal use almost any personal quality perceived as positive can be called a virtue. See also honesty, for example.
