COMIC BOOKS—Nowhere but Portland’s finest off-kilter comics shop Floating World would dare host a First Thursday show of bizarre, disturbing, surreal, downright WTF Eastern European comics. Tonight’s offering from Croatian comics creators Komikaze promises to be, at the very least, a collection of crazy shit you’ve never seen before. SM
Floating World Comics, 20 NW 5th, 6-10 pm, FREE

DANCE—So, your fitness resolutions are wobbly, and you’ve still got a handful of visitors you’re unsure how to entertain. The music of the 1980s is a reliable social equalizer, and club dancing one of the best workouts. Let’s Go Crazy is a free night of both. Done and done. MS
w/DJ BJ, DJ Nate C; Berbati’s Pan, 10 SW 3rd, 9 pm, FREE

Go crazy all week long with My, What a Busy Week!

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
