Meanwhile in Finland

Apparently, one of my neighbors does not like the Hernandez brothers much… But seriously, being shocked by seeing the box, I was ready to dive deeper with hope for the books but then saw huge cracks on the slipcase (I guess the glue did not stand local humidity). Well, it’s good to know someone in the same building is into comics, now I should find a way how to give them a sign (maybe I can throw the Building Stories box from Chris Ware into the same container🫠).

Does anyone have the Paper Rodeo Fort Thunder newspaper with a Ben Jones cat themed cover?

I can't remember the issue number but its Fall of 2000. I had a very small piece in there made of black and white construction paper - vaguely Mary Fleener esque and a dinosaurs/bone theme. It may have been printed upside down and backwards but is the only piece with b&w blobs like that.

I'd love to see my piece (and the whole issue) again. Anybody?

New details about the upcoming graphic novel by Richard McGuire, creator of "Here"

From the exhibition catalogue of the currently ongoing McGuire exhibition in Basel, Switzerland:

McGuire's new project is an experimental graphic novel about the appreciation of sound. "The restraints are the exact opposite of Here. Instead of focusing on one location over all of time, this book takes place everywhere in the known universe, and unfolds over the course of just one minute."

I can hardly wait! This is probably my most anticipated graphic novel from 2025 and beyond, along with Chris Ware's Rusty Brown vol 2.

Webcomic sites for alternative comics?

Hello friends, I'm looking for a home for a new webcomic I'm doing, but most of the sites I've found are way too flashy or too mainstream for my little black and white DIY style. Any ideas for a more altcomix-leaning host? I'm already on Substack, looking for something more oriented towards comics. Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

Trailer for Here

https://youtu.be/I_id-SkGU2k?si=vtEJrOjw0mScMjEd

This doesn't look good.

looks like they'll keep having people standing in front of the camera. Which in the house would be the equivalent to having people in the corner of the living room looking at the wall

Also, not sure, but something's odd about the perspective. It seems that they have the characters lower than they should be whenever they are close to the camera. Probably for some framing reason.

Any other artists similar to Simon Hanselmann?

I have been reading through the Megahex series and I’m obsessed! Getting closer to the end and wondering where else I can turn for this kind of humor & art! Thank you!
