Me holding up Jan Strnad and Dennis Fujitake's DALGODA and RETIEF! These are comics from the 80s recently collected and on sale via Amazon.
Just added RETIEF! to my library as a companion volume to DALGODA. You should do the same... oh, and in case you're wondering I am smiling. #Retief #Dalgoda #comics #80s #independent
Yeah, baby! Good stuff by terrific creators!

A couple of older indie sketch cards from last night’s stream. Mr. Monster and Dalgoda. I’d never even heard of the book Dalgoda prior to doing this. I’m now going to have to check it out.

Boosting the signal for my friend Jan Strnad. If you're in the area, head on over. His Dalgoda collection is terrific and Jan's got a lot of industry stories!

Tonight's (and last night's) reads: closing out The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics) with Flesh & Bones #2-4 and The Hero of the Tale. This was such a fun series with great, smiling highs and dramatic lows, with some hearty laughs. Highly recommended! #dalgoda @aboutcomics.com
Tonight's read: Flesh and Bones #1 from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). Only 3 issues left and then we're done with the canine cosmonaut Dalgoda. Do I sense an encounter with the Nimp in the near future? #dalgoda @aboutcomics.com
Today's reads (1/2): Dalgoda #7 and 8 from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). I'm not crazy about the grayscaling, but I understand it had to be done for printing purposes. At the same time, I probably prefer this to the full color versions. Still great! R.I.P. Posey 🥺 @aboutcomics.com #dalgoda
Tonight's read: Dalgoda, Come Home, Part Two (issue #6) and Pupsicle (short story) from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). I usually never go for typed serif font lettering, but now seeing it in contrast to the hand lettering, I think I prefer it typed for this book. @aboutcomics.com #dalgoda
Tonight's read: Dalgoda #5 (Fantagraphics Books) from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). I think we've finally cracked what's up with Victor's drunken stupors. I liked that a story beat was based on an electric shaver shorting out, leaving Posey's face half shaved. #dalgoda @aboutcomics.com
Today's read: Dalgoda #4 (Fantagraphics Books) from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). This island native chick has the hots for Dal. @aboutcomics.com @fantagraphics.bsky.social #dalgoda
Today's read: Dalgoda #3 (Fantagraphics Books) from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). This issue was really goofy and it was great. #dalgoda @aboutcomics.com @fantagraphics.bsky.social
Today's reads (1/3): Dalgoda #2 from The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). In addition to the war between the Canidans and Nimps, now we've got carnivorous plants that like to strangle dogs. @aboutcomics.com #dalgoda
This morning's read: Dalgoda #1 (Fantagraphics Books) from the Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). So absolutely rad. This comic literally checks every box when it comes to my particular taste. #dalgoda @aboutcomics.com @fantagraphics.bsky.social
Today's haul: The Dalgoda Omnibus (About Comics). Been wanting to check out this comic, and then just yesterday @paulchadwick.bsky.social reposted from @nat.gertler.com that it was available, and now I have it! Looking forward to this. #dalgoda #aboutcomics @aboutcomics.com
Jan Strnad's magnificent "Dalgoda" series - illustrated by Dennis Fujitake - has been collected in a big omnibus edition. The name "Dalgoda" is taken from the title of the classic book "Lad, A Dog." Link in the comments.
