The Toxic Avenger Comics #5

Through the Boughs: A Yuletide Offering has its moments but like many anthologies, is uneven

Venture deep through endless drifts of snow, through evergreen treelines tinkling with hoarfrost and rime. And then? Venture many miles more. And then maybe, possibly, improbably you will see lights. And dancing. And mirth. You may be asked to join. Or maybe who (or what!) you’ve found wants something far more mischievous than to sing and revel.

Story: Patrick McHale, J.K., Sweeney Boo, James Tynion IV, Molly Mendoza, Ryan Andrews, K. Wroten, Grim Wilkins
Art: Jim Campbell, Sweeney Boo, Jensine Eckwall, Molly Mendoza, Ryan Andrews, K. Wroten, Grim Wilkins
Letterer: Jim Campbell, Aditya Bidikar, Clayton Cowles, Ryan Andrews, K. Wroten, Grim Wilkins

The Triptych of Terror comes to The Last Comic Book on the Left

The fevered minds behind The Last Podcast on the LeftMarcus Parks, Henry Zebrowski, and Ben Kissel, have once more joined unholy forces with Z2 Comics for a third tome in the The Last Comic Book on the Left series. Overflowing with stories equally heretic and hilarious, this new anthology has ensnared a new batch of writers and artists to conjure more macabre and profane sequential art inspired by the podcast, featuring doomed descents into Norwegian Black Metal, the Andreasson Affair, the Hollow Moon, and the Edgewood Arsenal (among others). 

What other degenerates have been recruited into this brochure of the wicked? 

  • Eliot Rahal (Amelia Aierwood: Basic Witch, Cheech & Chong’s Chronicles)
  • Bob Fingerman (Minimum WageBeg the Question)
  • Brennan Wagner (Blondie: Against the Odds)
  • Jenna Cha (Black Stars Above)
  • Grim Wilkins (Mirenda, Prophet)
  • Maria Lovett (Faithless, Porcelain)
  • Josh Simmons (Black River, Flayed Corpse)
  • Bayard Morse (The Last Comic Book on the Left)
  • Eryk Donovan (Heavy, Memetic
  • Jade Young 
  • Jensine Eckwall

In addition, Marcus Parks and Henry Zebrowski will step out from the bullpen to write their own stories in this new volume. Legendary creator Matt Wagner (MageGrendel) provides the cover art for the deluxe edition with repeat offender Bob Fingerman returning to provide cover art on the standard edition; Rob Schwager illustrated the hardback. 

Like the first two volumes of The Last Comic Book on the Left, a series of prints will come bundled with deluxe editions of the book. Artists and subjects include:

  • Maria Lovett, Vampires
  • Rob Schwager, The Flatwoods Monster 
  • Jade Young, Curse of the Kelpie 

Mirenda is Collected in Paperback this October

Originally serialized in Island, cartoonist Grim Wilkins’ experimental fantasy adventure series Mirenda will be collected in an oversized trade paperback this October.

When a jungle-dwelling woman discovers a mysterious demon trapped in her leg, she sets off on an extraordinary adventure to get it out. A deeply visual—and nearly silent—graphic novel, Mirenda plays with the possibilities of the medium, taking up the torch left by the works of Moebius and Frazetta.

Mirenda (ISBN: 978-1-5343-0844-2) hits comics shops on Wednesday, October 31st and bookstores on Tuesday, November 6th.
