Praise for Good Minnesotan

Good Minnesotan Episode #3
"The third episode of this comic art compendium is the most ambitious and diverse yet. The emphasis is on experimentation with the medium through presentation, storytelling, and/or artwork."
Richard Krauss, Midnight Fiction

"These people just keep improving the design scheme of these anthologies. This one can go right on your bookshelf, what with the spine and all. If they keep this up #4 is going to have one of those gold-embossed covers that the big companies were using for a few years back when I cared about such things. How about the contents? I’d say this is their strongest issue yet."
Kevin Bramer, Optical Sloth

Good Minnesotan Episode #2
"While the first issue of Good Minnesotan is solid, it’s the second issue where I feel like it hits an artistic stride. Raighne and Meghan have now brought more artists into the fold."
Shawn Hoke, SIZE MATTERS: The Mini Comic Blog

"Good Minnesotan Episode 2 is an example of how great a fine hand crafted minicomic can be. This book is a truly beautiful thing to read, look at and hold. If you, my file under other reading pal, have not been able to hold an issue of Good Minnesotan in your hands then you really should make the effort. As I always say, the computer scans can't do the book justice. It is simply a beautifully crafted minicomic anthology that needs to be held in your hands to be appreciated."
Shannon Smith, File Under Other

Good Minnesotan Episode #1
"If you enjoy experimental storytelling or discovering the work of a new crop of cartoonists, you'll love Good Minnesotan."
Richard Krauss, Comic Related

"More like this please! [T]his book as a concept is exactly what’s needed to keep this medium going strong: regional anthologies."
Kevin Bramer, Optical Sloth

"[A]s far as first issues go this one is a gem."
Shannon Smith, File Under Other

"The first issue, largely featuring work by Raighne, with supporting roles by Meghan and Justin Skarhus, is dark and menacing. Nothing in here is content to simply rest on the page. You encounter abrupt, sometimes confusing, shifts in narrative, as well as artistic jumps in perspective and structure."
Shawn Hoke, SIZE MATTERS: The Mini Comic Blog

I don’t mean to nitpick, but if you’ve been reading my reviews for a while here at Poopsheet Foundation, then you know that I can be a stickler for proper grammar and punctuation. There are many elements of The Wang that I did enjoy, but some of…
