Ok, enough vagaries, let’s get down […]

The Big Break #3: T.J. Kirsch

By | Nov 14, 2017 | Columns

When I was about eight or nine years old on a boring Saturday afternoon, long before the invention of the internet, I drew my first comic book cover. It was a referenced recreation of a “Fantastic Four” cover featuring Rusty from the New Mutants. I drew it on a big piece of card stock poster […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (11/15/2017)

By | Nov 14, 2017 | Columns

“Bottled”

By | Nov 13, 2017 | Reviews

With “Bottled,” Australian cartoonist Chris Gooch makes a somewhat frustrating graphic novel debut. Frustrating in that this story of mundane millennial alienation and jealousy escalating into something unsettling, has all of the parts of something really good, something right up my alley; however, these great parts don’t quite click together.
