EXTRAZEROCULAR ACTIVITIES...
In addition to biographical notes
on ZERO ZERO cartoonists,
this column will include
information on availability of
other books, zines, and
miscellaneous products by
these selfsame cartoonists.
An “FB” next to the price
means you can order the
literature in question from
Fantagraphics Books, using the
coupon on the facing page.
Max Andersson will continue
to snatch high-paying cartoon
jobs from under the noses of
hard-working, red-blooded
American cartoonists unless
Congress passes some sort of
law about it; his amazing
graphic novel РІХУ ($11.95/FB)
is dissected in great detail in the
current issue of THE COMICS
JOURNAL, #174 ($5.95/FB),
which also features an
interview with Andersson...
if you've bought all three issues
of COLLIER’S (#1-2, $2.75
each; #3, $3.50/FB) and are
hungry for more than the four-
page David Collier pieces
scheduled for future ZERO
ZEROs, you'd better move to
Saskatchewan, where Collier's
daily panel “Saskatoon Sketches”
appears (in the SASKATOON
STAR-PHOENIX, circ. 80,000)...
Kim Deitch has temporarily
forsaken the comics world for
the fine-arts milieu, but will
return to sequential cartoons in
a big way with a 40-page
concluding installment to his
creepy SHADOWLAND
continuity; it will appear in
ZERO ZERO toward the end of
1995...
Contrary to what you might
believe, First Amendment poster
boy Mike Diana did not commit
a felony by writing and drawing
the story in this issue of ZERO
ZERO, as his case weaves its
way through the courts again;
bloody but unbowed, Diana is
working on the second issue of
SUPERFLY, and has finished а
"Rape" board game for the next
issue of
legendary
rantzine
ANSWER MEI...
š Have you read
Michael Dougan's I CAN'T
TELL YOU ANYTHING yet? If
not, why not? ($14.00/FB)...
Man of Mystery David
Holzman (originally seen in the
pages of RAW) has produced
several more woodcut comics
stories, including “The Am-
phora” and “Daphne Returned,”
and has self-published them: if
you're interested in acquiring
one of these (or a copy of the
original “Man With the Big
Head”), write him at 65 New
Road, Avon, CT 06001...
The fifth issue of Pat
any day now from Fantagraph-
ics (the latest, issue #4,
available for $2.50/FB):
meanwhile, rock fans can
check out his
and Jim
Blanchard's 12-
page comic-book
jacket for the latest
release from the
Goops, ON THE
ROAD WITH THE
GOOPS (for details,
write to Blackout
Records, P.O. Box

Most normal cartoonists, after
delivering themselves of a
project like Harvey Pekar and
Joyce Brabner's OUR CANCER
YEAR, vvould lapse into
catatonia for a few years; not so
Frank Stack, who, in addition
to his continuing “New ᾽
Adventures of Jesus” serial, has
vvrapped up a story about
Caravaggio for the next issue ої .
BLABI, and is laboring away at
two stories (totaling 30 pages)
for future editions of AMER-
ІСАМ SPLENDOR; the future
includes a planned NEW
ADVENTURES OF JESUS
anthology and a collection of
Stack's nudes, plus the
occasional review tor THE
COMICS JOURNAL...

SMILE AND BE
COMPLIMENTARY
THEY MIGHT ASK
US BACK
If you're vaguely aware of
Ted Stearn's work but don't
remember where you saw it
last, check out David
Mazzucchelli's RUBBER
BLANKET (issue #3 available
from FB for $8.00)...
Quebecois lunatic Henriette
Valium, who makes Julie
Doucet look like a nice Catholic |
girl - well, actually, Julie
Doucet is a nice Catholic girl -
can be seen in recent issues
of SCREW and CRUEL AND
UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT,
and is working on a new

of
his

know the Bad Boys creator is
also the writer of Cosmic
Comics’ LITTLE SHOP ОҒ
