Most of this mini is his interpretation of the Snow White fairy tale,  and it&#8217;s one of the better adaptations that I&#8217;ve seen. The first part is  available here, the whole thing (which looks huge) is available online  at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moderntales.com\/\">Modern Tales<\/a>, along with  stories from all kinds of small press folks. The good news is that  there&#8217;s a ton of stuff there, the bad news is that it isn&#8217;t free. Still,  most people can handle $2.95 a month, right? There are also a couple of  shorter stories in this mini (one a hilarious &#8220;how to&#8221; about mini  comics and another about meeting aliens) that work as well as the larger  story. Frankly, I don&#8217;t know why I hadn&#8217;t heard more about this guy  before this. It&#8217;s a funny, expertly done book and his name should be  right up there at the start of conversations about the best of the small  press. It may seem odd for me to say this after only seeing one book,  but this book is flawless. Even if his older stuff is worse than this,  unless he got a brain transplant or something, it&#8217;s bound to be at least  entertaining. Check out his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oklahoma.net\/~silvrdal\/jesse.html\">website<\/a>,  even though it doesn&#8217;t look like it&#8217;s been updated in a while and it has  really crappy background music.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/savagedaisies62.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"397\" height=\"615\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Savage Daisies #6 Another one from the long list of people who were recommended to me ages ago, it&#8217;s great to see that Jesse fully lives up to expectations.
