i feel this way about a ton of reg comics art too obviously
Slartisfgh is never mentioned in The Bible, but it is here, during one of the early battles, that Matthew spontaneously became liquid.

Blades and Lasers got announced for later this year:
Debuting at this year’s SPX, the first issue of BLADES & LAZERS. Published by Ian Harker’s bi-monthly risograph endeavor, SACRED PRISM, this issue introduces readers to the Gearson brothers. One a mute barbarian blade master. The other, a sweet-talking las-slinger. Together they kidnap wizards to summon and slay Galacto-Demons. The brains and hearts of the Galacto-Demons are a tremendous resource amongst the planets of The Periphery and the Gearson’s are the best Galacto-Demon hunters in all the Inter-Galaxies.
Dang. My day is made.

Anybody into Leif Goldberg? I haven't thought about him in years, but just noticed there's a new issue of National Waste out after years of silence. He had some pretty cool stuff at the height of when Kramers Ergot was big, but never got the attention of Ben Jones et al.

my favorite comic this year is probably patrick mckeown's hair shirt which kinda took me completely by surprise
sevenarts wrote:Woodring's a genius. He's been doing a whole series of those graphic novels like Weathercraft lately, there's also Congress of the Animals and Fran is the new one coming out this year. Everything he does is mind-meltingly good and seems to come from someplace nobody else can quite access. When I was first getting into comics again in college, his big collection The Frank Book was one of the things that really opened my eyes to just how much weird and wild stuff could actually be done in the medium.
dude even his jabba the hutt comics are surprisingly good

Just ordered Emmy by JMKE and have read and loved everything Patrick Kyle does. Micheal deforge too of course. I share Dan clowes' sentiment in that I'd rather see something personal by an idiot than something mainstream, drawn well, and heartless. If you guys like megg and mogg you should check out his friend HTML flowers, and then you should look at anything CF did. They rip him off aesthetically, but do different shit. Man I love "alt" comics and have been gearing up to do something myself. Kramers ergo always has some tight shit in it, very good if you want some place to start with alt comics.

You guys listen to ink studs? It's a podcast. The simon hanselmann interview is awesome. I listen to it about three time a month. Micheal deForge also has a couple mixes on it that are real cool.

I need to listen to it more. I pretty much only listen to the people I'm familiar with and I hardly know anybody. Mu pan's was really good. The guy who does it is real good at interviewing, better than most podcast hosts anyway.

the first al columbia interview was how i discovered it
generally speaking for inkstuds if brandon graham is on it's worth a listen

well the aforementioned jon vermilyea
new/old frank santoro (pompeii thing)
new ryan cecil smith
new matthew thurber
new paul pope
new kyle platts
and a new (to us anyway ) seiichi hayashi book is always a good thing
and there's more this is just what's off the top of my head. of course there's all the image stuff too but that's probably best saved for the other thread

I've got the one Pompeii issue Santoro put out a while back, it was real good. The amount of atmosphere he can build from so little is really impressive. The full Pompeii seems like it could well be his next Storeyville. But again, where the hell is Cold Heat???
