FRESCAZIZIS by Melinda Gebbie
FRESCAZIZIS
by Melinda Gebbie
32pp / BW / 7 x 10
$3.00
heavy read
beautiful drawing
agressive feminism
the drawing is fresh and verbally inconsistent
it doesn't get bogged down by knowledge
the drawing searches beside the subject
frank about sex
respectful about sex and its ambiguities
even when irreverent and on the attack
ecstatic and curious
which is generally lacking in comics
rapturous apocalyptic revelation
1977
INNER CITY ROMANCE #1 by Guy Colwell
INNER CITY ROMANCE #1
by Guy Colwell
36pp / BW / 7 x 10
$5.00
one of my all time favorite underground comix
super-under-appreciated
which could have something to do with how solid and
challengingly uncomfortable and uncompromising the story is
colwell serves a story with cold moral confidence
racially charged and sexually explicit
the ending will...

collected sketchbooks from yer favorite ink dippers circa 1973
the bill griffith stuff is awesome and very different from his comix

justin green is the master and his sketches will make you think about his work in new ways
