Chrome Fetus Comics #5 Now Available! $2.95
What an absolutely unique comic experience. Robert Young (from The Comics Interpreter, something everybody should be supporting) had told me, but wow. The only person that comes close to his uniqueness and insanity would be Jim Woodring, but it does a disservice to them both to be compared, as they’re both completely doing their own thing. Panels in this seems perfectly normal, like it’s just a guy going about his day. Then you see something wriggling in the next frame, or a little baby with a rhino head getting its head scooped, or a screw being driven into a bloated body with a turkey head, or a man with the head of a bird pissing on a large crowd, and you realize that you’re looking at something that’s never even crossed your mind. He has a vast body of work, which is music to my ears, because that means there’s tons more to discover. I hope the scan does it justice, but he also has some of the most detailed panels that I’ve ever seen. Every single person in this drawing had some serious time and effort put into them, and that’s a fairly incredible thing to say about a crowd shot. Other things in here include small children dropping cinder blocks from the top of a tall building, a man entering the anus of a large rat balloon, a hairy lollipop and effluvial spurts. It’s $2.95 and indispensable to the expanding of your brain.
