New Mini-Comics!


We've got some excellent new mini-comics in.

First we've got 3 books by Max Clotfelter, who kinda comes from the Crumb school of thinking that ugly people are funny. His people are really ugly. "Shore Leave Showcase" ($1.50) was my favorite of the bunch. Its a collection of comic strips about a pair of hardcore skinheads and the fun that comes with a magic eightball in a sock. "Abandon Ship" ($1.00) is the sad tale of a man who had it all and gave it up to be a hobo. and "Vittle Chin" ($2.00) is a collection of various shorts filled with filth and social depravity.

Way on the other side of the comics spectrum, is "Rosey the Ninny" ($4.00) by Stefanie Shank. Its pure comics girliness, but I loved it. Does that make me less of a man? Yes. But, Shank is a clever cartoonist and I think anybody would enjoy it (and then become less manly). Its about a girl trying to figure out how she became a woman working at a lingerie store. Good for anyone who's worked retail.
