Gaynor, Jerome – Funkapotamus #7

April 23, 2010

Dreams, teenage memories and feeling like shit. All great tools when the artist knows what he/she is doing, and Jerome certainly does. Anybody out there know why he hardly does comics any more? Am I just missing them? Doesn’t look like it, according to his page, but at least he’s working on a lot of stuff. You can’t go wrong with these minis, what can I say? Whenever I scrounge up a few bucks (after FLUKE, that’s for sure) I’m going to try and get some of the issues I missed years ago.

Funkapotamus #6

Jerome would have been on here from day one if I had known that he was still around. I hadn’t seen anything from him since #9 of this series, and that was at least six years ago, so I just kind of assumed that he had stopped doing comics. Shows what I know, and that a little research can go a long way. This one isn’t available but I’m putting it up here anyway because it was in my pile of Funkapotamus minis. OK? Anyway, he’s one of the originals that I started reading way back when I was getting into small press stuff, so it’s tough for me to be objective about this. Random poetry and stories about killing time as a teenager are all over the place in these books, and he does both pretty well. You can’t buy this one but there are plenty of other ones available on his website. Here’s a couple of samples so you don’t feel like my putting this one up was a total waste of time…
