luke I never really noticed the existence of the Beavis And Butthead comic but that cover looked so good, now I'm looking at every cover by Rick Parker and they're almost all killer. Might have a new series to hunt down. The beavis and butthead comics are great!

Might have a new series to hunt down. The beavis and butthead comics are great! They really are. Grab them anytime I see them in the bins. Would love to see a revival of the comics alongside the current TV show revival. Get some good modern indie creators on it.

Pre-order day: I got this morning the TCJ #309, cause that interview of John Porcellino to Inés Estrada sounds like it must be an amazing one, and the cover of Jesse Jacobs looks great.

From the weekend A couple were from the $2 bin (thank you inflation): Montana Diary, Hyperthick and The Guild ones (got 'em because of the cover artists. Sophie Campbell does the back cover for the Bladez one) Couldn't pass up the Judas Coin for half off. The rest are recent new comics. mikesheawright Thanks for the Beavis and Butt-Head pics. Man the lighting created by the colorist is delicious.

Picked up the new Nick Maandag, Harvey Knight’s Odyssey. I think Maandag is the funniest cartoonist alive and Streakers is maybe in my all time top 5. His last book for D&Q was also amazing.
I have a thing with books that are personally highly anticipated where I find it hard to start them. Anxiety that it won’t live up to the rest of the body of work and premature sadness that after I finish it’ll be a while before the next one.
Is it just me or are Drawn & Quarterly books getting consistently smaller dimension-wise. This one I think is about 30% smaller than Follies of Richard Wadsworth. I also remember being surprised at how tiny Jessica Campbell’s Rave was when I first saw it in person.

I hope you enjoy the interview!! I was very nervous going into it, as I have never been on that end of a big interview before, but talking to Inés was like talking to an old friend. She's so smart and so free with her thinking and expression-- talking to her really uncorked my brain. A real artist.

Yeah I get that paper costs are rising but on the other hand a publisher like Silver Sprocket (without any Canadian gov't funding) has been putting out all those deluxe hardcovers and foil-embossed whatnots (of stuff that imo would be better presented as cheap floppies).

As I've discussed with whitecomics, Silver Sprocket seems like one of the winners of 2022. At SPX, Silver Sprocket's table was (1) huge, (2) packed with new books, and (3) continuously one of the most crowded parts of the floor. They went home with two Eisners (for Good Boy Magazine and Mr. Boop), and they went on to reprint Caroline Cash's winning comic. Beyond that, Silver Sprocket's cartoony punk aesthetic seems ascendant, and their artists have attracted big followings online -- Michael Sweater, Benji Nate, Elizabeth Pich, Caroline Cash, Corinne Halbert, etc.

"Halb Halb" by Leo Quievreux, a riso comic published by Magma Bruta. Really nicely done. The book switches between German and English but there is a bookmark with translations. MB also sent lot of other riso swag too.

Today I went to Madrid's Antique and Second-Hand Book Fair and found some nice comics (I wasn't expecting comics in this type of fair so it was a nice surprise).
That complete stories edition of Martí's Taxista (Cabbie) is one I've been wanting to buy for a while, because of the format plus the design - even though I owned already some Cabbie volumes. So I am super stoked about this.

The other day I received 2d Cloud’s new edition of The Necrophilic Landscape by Morgan Vogel. Really glad that this is back in print after being seemingly impossible to find for a while now. Loved it on an initial reading! Lots to unpack, looking forward to rereading it many times over.
