#HumpdayHutchinsons – INSECT TERROR!
We’re diving back into the Phoenix Masters archives to share some vintage Joe Hutchinson madness! Read on (and click the side arrows to advance through the comic)… As a little background, this originally was an 8-page minicomic. The deep red reflects the choice in cover stock, something we would play with a lot when we…
A little U.F.O. love for FANzine Three: Street Art!
Brand new United Fanzine Organization member Len Mihalovich was kind enough to offer some thoughts on FANzine Three: Street Art in the 283rd issue of Tetragrammaton Fragments, the UFO newsletter. A couple things: First, the cat’s out of the bag. I find that the camaraderie and shared love of comics/zines in the UFO is so…

#SundaySteveWillis – Cranium Frenzy #25!
We’re back at it with #SundaySteveWillis, this time getting up to Cranium Frenzy #25! This issue was fun in that Steve shelved the long-form story for at least an issue and instead rolled out a bunch of short (almost all single-page) strips.

Almost Normal Comics reviews Edward Bolman’s Noble Head Funnies
The ink is barely dry, and we have a review of Edward Bolman and J.P. Noel’s Noble Head Funnies! Warren Elliott, a bit of a small press zine/comic person in his own right, grabbed himself a copy of NHF and had all sorts of great things to say about the book at his Almost Normal…
A little love for Willis and Cranium Frenzy!
Imagine my surprise when watching a discussion between Canon Zine’s Colin Blanchette and writer Gary Usher about their Top 100 Superheroes list in Die With Your Mask On #3…and they veer off on a tangent about Steve Willis, Tragedy of Morty and The Collected Cranium Frenzy! Thanks for the kind words, guys! (And if you…
