New review for another old mini, this time The Wonderful Year #2 by Rebecca Taylor. Sorry about the missed update yesterday, but I am working on random things for the rental project (like weighing comics, which will be vital once the rental project gets going), so it’s not like I’m a total slacker or anything.
Update for 3/9/10
March 9, 2010New review for The Signifiers by Michael Neno, in which I’m reminded that I wish Micheal put out comics on a more regular basis, as I seem to always enjoy them. Um, spoiler alert, and this is a brand new comic if that wasn’t completely clear.
Update for 3/8/10
March 8, 2010New review for a new book: The Complete Ouija Interviews by Sarah Becan. About time this series got the “graphic novel” treatment…
Update for 3/6/10
March 6, 2010New review for one more old comic, this time Famous Bus Rides #1 by Colin Upton. I’m going to try and find some new minis this weekend, but I’m heading to Champaign and the pickings are always a little slim in that area. Wish me luck…
Update for 3/5/10
March 5, 2010New review for The Most Powerful Gate by Tom Hart, a 24 hour comic from 15 years ago.
Update for 3/4/10
March 4, 2010New review for another old mini, The Magic Whistle #2 (mini comics edition) from Sam Henderson. Ah, memory lane. I am quite possibly spending a bit too much time there lately, but what with the moves and a lack of new comics, there are certainly worse places to be.
Update for 3/3/10
March 3, 2010New review for a book that’s available in the online store:Syndication, edited by Nik Havert. Or at least put out by him, that part isn’t entirely clear. This is another one of those books that should have been in the store ages ago, but either never made it in or was somehow erased during one of the site upgrades. I’m going with the second option, because otherwise I would have to consider myself a complete moron for missing this one for so long…
Update for 3/2/10
March 2, 2010New review for an almost new comic (as opposed to all the old minis I’ve been posting lately), Robot 13 #1 by Thomas Hall & Daniel Bradford.
Update for 3/1/10
March 1, 2010Sorry about the weekend absence, I had a nasty virus on my computer and finally got rid of it only to discover another one that I can’t get rid of. Ah, the joys of owning a computer. New review today for an old but wonderful mini comic, Double Cross #15 by Tony Consiglio.
Update for 2/25/10
February 25, 2010New review for yet another old mini (1998 this time), James Kochalka Superstar #11. For you kids out there who don’t know, that was the name of the mini James Kochalka did for years before he went to all graphic novels all the time. Or I missed a step, that’s entirely possible.
Update for 2/24/10
February 24, 2010New review for another oldie, coincidentally also from 1994: Boom Boom #4 by Dave Lasky.
Update for 2/23/10
February 23, 2010New review for Jape #3 by Sean Bieri, another of those old minis I keep bringing up. As always, I could also review your new comic, if you wanted to send it my way…
Update for 2/21/10
February 21, 2010New review for a new comic: Crass Sophisticate #25 by Josh Reinwald & Justin Rosenberg. See, I do still occasionally post updates on Sundays!
Update for 2/19/10
February 19, 2010New review for a new comic! It’s Baltic Comics Magazine #5: After Snowfall by various (mostly) Latvian artists, in which I finally abandon the giant Various pages that are on this site for something a bit simpler.
Update for 2/18/10
February 18, 2010New review for a real oldie, this time Self-Portrait Comic #1 by Colin Upton. I’ve only gotten positive feedback for my digging through the archives, so I’m assuming that this is useful and at least mildly informative to you, the reader. If you hate it you might want to let me know…
Update for 2/17/10
February 17, 2010New review for another old mini, this time the practically flawless Love Looks Left by Tom Hart.
Update for 2/16/10
February 16, 2010New review for a very old mini, King Cat Classix Volume 1 by John Porcellino. Who does a guy have to punch to get a complete King Cat collection one of these days?
Update for 2/15/10
February 15, 2010Technically it’s not a new review today, although I did update the Onsmith page with a working website. Why does that count as a real review? Because over the weekend I did inventory for the store and added a count for everything, meaning that when you order things now there is no chance of it being out of stock. The site keeps track of that now, not lazy old me, so when something is out of stock it won’t let you order it. Anyway, while I was doing that I found a couple of books that inexplicably weren’t listed in the store, and Gag-Hag (edited by Onsmith) was one of them. I don’t usually talk up the books on the site news page, but it’s an anthology from 2004 with some dirty, dirty humor featuring Ivan Brunetti, Chris Cilla, John Hankiewicz, David King, Ted May, Onsmith, Johnny Ryan, Bryce Somerville and Dan Zettwoch. For all I know this is out of print by now, especially with that pile of talent involved, but lucky for you I dug up some copies. Not sure why this wasn’t on the page before, as I know I sold at least one copy of this, but that error has been fixed.
Update for 2/12/10
February 12, 2010New review for another old mini, this time Unshaven Chi #2/Get Bent #6 by Ben Steckler. This where I had a reminder about that one new thing about the site I’m not technically supposed to mention, so forget that I edited out that thing that I can’t talk about. However, I should ask again if anybody out there is interested in advertising on the site. Let me know and I’ll be happy to tell you all the secrets stats of the site that would make you love to advertise here.
