Beakie Goes to Hollywood<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another day, another Stripburger mini that looks great. I can’t stress enough what a fantastic job they did putting this pack of 12 minis together, both with the overall packaging and with the individual comics. This one is the tale of a character named Beakie who goes to Hollywood. Aren’t you glad I’m here to clear up little things like that? The art reminds me a lot of early Crumb, with a little of Jessica Abel’s minis thrown in. Probably has something to do with him looking like a walking bird, but it’s just the general feel of paranoia and hatred of the world that permeates it more than anything. A good read, but I was hoping that this pack was going to be a series of self-contained stories. This one is “To be continued”, which kind of sucks. But I think this was done last year so the next part of it might actually be out. Anyway, a funny, interesting story. Contact him, ask him what else he has around or if you could buy this one.<\/p>\n

Chris Staros over at Top Shelf told me that although the Mini Burger set isn’t available on the web page, you can still order it through their online catalog. Just go to the ordering page<\/a>, click on #4 at the bottom (additional comments) and write in that you want the Mini Burger set for $19.95. They have it in stock, they just haven’t updated the site in a while. From what I’ve read, it’s worth it. There might be two bad ones in this bunch and a couple of mediocre ones, but the good ones are good in ways that you don’t usually see in this country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
