Even though we may have our differences, I think we can all agree that people who bring cookies to comic book conventions are some of the best people around -- especially when those cookies are delicious tributes to the comics themselves.

My favorite, though, were edible Machine of Death cards, representing the 100% accurate death predictions issued. Not only is it a pretty clever tribute to the book, but it also plays on every comics creator's innate fear of death by fan:
