Thanks for the great review, Justin. I really should heed your criticism for forthcoming projects and get some serious editing. Maybe I ought to seek your services for good measure ;)
Thanks, Justin!
Yeah, I used construction paper for that white on black strip. Big mistake. Thanks for the good comments. Keep in mind 'Red Star' is just a 'supplement" to WELTSCHMERZ. There are several more.I consider it a book -in-progress. ...around 160 pges now…
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…
This ‘zine style book quickly grabs your attention with an attractive wrap around cover design and overall sense of packaging that I just loved. Having consumed as much pop culture as I have in the form of comics, books, magazines, movies, music,…
I’m going to just say this right up front – I think Noah Van Sciver could be the next big thing. I haven’t read all of his material, but judging solely by Complaints it’s easy to foresee a multitude of potential career tracks. The most obvious is t…
My heart sank a little when I realized this was another daily comic diary, since I had such a lukewarm reaction to the previous one I’d read, but I found Sundogs much more enjoyable. Adam Pasion offers a very strong variety of strips, and his affab…
I’m always a little hesitant to throw the term “best” around because it dredges up connotations of all-knowing omniscience, of some sort of superhuman entity having consumed everything possibly available, using a universally accepted set of objecti…
The second volume of NMSD continues the “brushes with celebrity” theme, and essentially there is a larger gulf between the pieces that work and don’t work for me. Richard Krauss has a polished and consistent style and isn’t afraid to break the pane…
For a complete list of contributors and ordering information, please visit www.mysmallwebpage.com. The theme of this well constructed anthology style book is brushes with celebrity. I love how the book is put together, the faux pictures with corner…
While there’s no price given for this quick-reading 16-pager, and the page count is relatively small, the price will definitely be worth the lingering enjoyment it provides, and I’d encourage you to check out the creators at: www.pheasantglencomics…

COMPLAINTS by Noah Van Sciver

I haven’t read all of his material, but judging solely by Complaints it’s easy to foresee a multitude of potential career tracks.

RUNX TALES #2 by Matt Runkle
If you take a short trip to www.matt-runkle.com you’ll see that this creator is everything that Runx Tales #2 would lead you to believe. He’s a hard working autobio-comix creator, who also happens to sling food at a diner occasionally. I’m hoping that the sidel… Continue

Had a great time and met several folks for the first time. It was a good size crowd and they were selling books too. I wish you could've been there too!
Yeah, Joe really came through with some wonderful extra pieces of art. I need to integrate them…

Thanks, Justin!
Creepy!
Oh, almost forgot -- love the stuff on Joe Wehrle too...
Very cool, I didn't know you were going to be there! Wish I could've made it up, bet it was lots of fun.
