Loser teenagers growing up in nowhere towns, one of my favorite subjects. #minicomicI’m Busy by Jane Mai (2018, 2019?). A kickass monthly planner I picked up at MoCCA.My MoCCA haul was very small this year.Do you know Mark Wang’s comics? They’re really good! He’ll be tabling with me at MoCCA. Table F201!Zine City Comix 3 by Kinoko Evans (2006). I think this is my earliest Kinoko mini. Bubbly and energetic with a lot going on on the page. #minicomicJust a little more self-promotion! I’m publishing a new minicomic by Katie Fricas: Texas Chainsaw Sculptor! Get it at MoCCA. #minicomicNot to brag, but I have a lot of Martin Cendreda minis. That last one is Catch Me If You Can (2010), a sweet wordless story about parenthood and aging. Reminds me of Last Lonely Saturday by Jordan Crane. #minicomicsA rare bit of self promotion! Paper Rocket will be debuting these two comics at MoCCA: Carlito by Carlo Quispe and Things Go Wrong #2 by Jason Bradshaw. #minicomicHalf Asleep 1 by Kyle O’Connell and Beth Hetland (2013). The first part of a story with sci-fi tones. It stars a a prodigy student and her professor mom at a strange university. #minicomicUrban Nomad 2 by Alisa Harris (2009). Sweet and light autobio about living in NYC. #minicomicComplex 1 by Chris Kuzma (year unknown, 2011?). Trippy story. Cool drawings. #minicomicShock Therapy 2 by Joe E (1990). Some impressive drawings in here. This short horror story was the best part. Minicomics has a different flair in the early 90s. #minicomicManhole 2 by Mardou (2006). The main story is about the forbidden romance of an affair. Check out Sky in Stereo, I think a new volume is out! #minicomicEveryday by Chris Radtke and others (2005). It’s a crass (somewhat fictionalized? Very fictionalized?) diary illustrated by others, Harvey Pekar style. Some big names in here: Jim Rugg, Bob Fingerman, Marc Bell, Raina Telgemeier (!). #minicomicThese are all the Matt Thurber comics I own. In case you’re curious. (2002-2015) #minicomic
