An Inside Job
cover

With lush detail and nuanced human interaction, these dream comics recall the work of comics pioneer Winsor McKay. Issue #3 takes on a larger format and a broader scope as the author dies several times, shoots people, and tries a new approach to anger management — while not neglecting perennial favorites like vampires, health care, wistful flirtation, and the rebellious bladder. Spiritual slapstick in a dizzying array of styles.

Postdoc
cover

Very silly sketchbook of watercolor and colored pencil drawings of people who aren’t doctors but play them on TV, as they might appear if they chose to do other things instead. Will it help you realize your own aspirations? We can only hope.

The Witness

A melancholy, mysterious, and mind-expanding travelogue through the Earth’s past and future, as seen by the lonely ghost of a dinosaur. Wordless and scientifically dubious, rendered in a sparse but textural style. Hand-tinted cover.
