Newspapers and Magazines
By spring 2000 Millikin was working with artist Casey Sorrow and creating comics for college newspapers like Michigan State University's The State News. After six months, The State News cancelled the comic strip despite support from some readers. Millikin's artwork continues to be published on the web and in many college newspapers, in alternative newspapers such as the Metro Times, in major daily newspapers like The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press, and in magazines like Wired. The Comics Journal has written that Millikin's comics "use the newspaper format for far more daring, entertainingly perverse work" than most comics and is "perfectly at home at a good alternative weekly or a great college paper."

Famous quotes containing the words newspapers and, newspapers and/or magazines:
“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we “can’t bear to throw away.””
—Russell Lynes (1910–1991)
“I blame the newspapers because every day they call our attention to insignificant things, while three or four times in our lives, we read books that contain essential things. Once we feverishly tear the band of paper enclosing our newspapers, things should change and we should find—I do not know—the Pensées by Pascal!”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“The most important service rendered by the press and the magazines is that of educating people to approach printed matter with distrust.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
