Two comics in a year can be considered regular, so we&#8217;ll  see what happens. And, not to give anything away or anything, but  keeping the same title for the rest of the series might be a bit tough.  There are three stories in here. The first is about a boxer who&#8217;s lost  faith in the world, the second about a young girl whose mother has  killed herself, and the last about life and death and everything after.  This was a really great read, and I recommend it for anybody who happens  to be going to SPX this weekend (you lucky bastards), but it also felt a  bit like a punch to the gut. A bit depressing, if you will, what with  all the death and futility of it all. If you&#8217;re looking for something  happy I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s something with puppies on this site somewhere,  but if you&#8217;re looking for a solid comic, well, here it is. Contact info  is up there, it&#8217;s $2.99.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/boxer12.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"442\" height=\"658\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Boxer #1 Now Available! $3 This is the first issue of a new regular series by Lonnie, although &#8220;regular&#8221; in the small press comics world could be interpreted in a number of ways.
