RIP Frank Stack, who worked on my favorite one shot comic ever, ‘American Splendor: Transatlantic Comics.’ THE best, in my opinion, American Splendor artist.

New review from @fourcolorryan.bsky.social

#Comics #ComicsAfterDark

D.O.A. Comics #1 - I’ve been hunting one of these since my friend @fourcolorryan.bsky.social told me about it.

Published 1976 by Saving Grace

One of the absolute joys of 80s alternative comics

When you are visiting London, make sure you stop in @goshcomics.bsky.social down in lovely SOHO. Incredible selection of comic books, graphic novels and especially huge section of small press comix and zines including my own RELUCTANT SADIST! Currently stocked with #8 and #9, so get some!

Bring it on! Jaye Griffiths is fantastic.

I've been curious about this story for decades. Probably the most-anticipated "lost stories" release for me to date.

You can't lose with Veitch and Irons. Classic stuff.
