Sure, we have a whole lotta new stuff this week, but what we really enjoyed was Jason Young’s envelope, which he sent us his mini comics in, which are Veggie Dog Saturn #3 ($3.00) & Veggie Dog Saturn #4 ($2.00).
In case you can’t read it, the mouse on the left is saying “Ha! This comic’s great!” The mouse on the right is saying “Hurry up! I wanna get my drink on!”
Highlights this week:
Weathercraft by Jim Woodring (Fantagraphics) $19.99 – It’s a Frank comic! In a beautiful hard cover book!
Hopes and Prospects SC by Noam Chomsky (Haymarket) $16.00
Craphound #4 Clowns Devils and Bait $12.00 – Did we tell you about this one last week? Worth repeating!
Wally Gropius by Tim Hensley (Fantagraphics) $18.99 – Hilarious. There is at least one referance to Huey Lewis.
Very Kraftwerk Summer by Christopher Hutsul $7.00 – A memoir comic about an adolescent posse influenced by the band. But looking at the art, it almost looks a bit like one of Archer Prewitt’s Coctails posters. Cool! If only me and my friends were this cool at that age. -LM
