Going back to Bloom County
The American male at ages 10-34 I have my brother to thank (and you can use ‘thank’ in its normal or sarcastic tone) for a lot of my pop culture tics — he’s to thank for my forty years worth of X-Men comics knowledge and also my eternal crushes on Hitchcock’s ice blondes. But the thing I thank him most for is introducing me to Berkeley Breathed’s Bloom County comic strip (he bought me the Classics of Western Literature collection as a gift), because there’s no other way I would have even

This wekend: Royal Flush Festival
Jah Furry shares a preview of the new issue of Royal Flush Magazine , which contains much of comics-related interest: • Exclusive cover story / interview with Playboy’s Hugh Hefner, including a first-time-ever-printed 60-year-old autobiographical comic strip written and drawn by Hef. In homage, Royal Flush Book 6 features two foldout posters: centerfold by comics rock star Paul Pope and calendar by poster legend Brian Ewing. Plus, a Joan Jett flip cover with 3-D “smoke eyes” spot gloss var

The worst comic strip in the world
Here is Thursday’s episode of a comic strip called Adams’ Apples, which appears exclusively in my local paper, The Oregonian, and is not available online. The artist, Jim Adams, is a local schoolteacher, and the strip is apparently autobiographical. It is also consistently amateurishly drawn, awkwardly worded, and unfunny.

It’s Bushmiller Time
It’s a good time to be a Nancy-boy. Fantagraphics is about to launch a comprehensive reprinting of Ernie Bushmiler’s strip, along with Mark Newgarden and Paul Karasik’s How to Read Nancy , which promises to be a revelatory look at the language of comics. Coupled with this is Drawn and Quarterly’s great new reprint of the Nancy comic books, done by John Stanley and Dan Gormley. Although slightly different in spirit from the Nancy comic strip – less formalist and gaggy, with longer stories and mo

Review: Nancy Vol. 1
The second release from Drawn and Quarterly’s John Stanley Library collection features a much better known property than Melvin Monster —Ernie Bushmiller’s comic strip heroine Nancy. As was the case with the Melvin book, Nancy Vol. 1 is a gorgeously designed and packaged book, something collection-ophiles can look at and handle with admiration. Seth uses Nancy’s emoticon-simple face to great effect on the cover, title page and the pages between the five issues of Dell’s Nancy comic
