report from Getxo Comics Salon

reading “Ernie Pike” stories by Hugo Pratt and Héctor Oesterheld, great WWII stories for the Argentine magazine Hora Cero. Never been translated into English. So good.

as well I realize what to me is also missing: there is an absence in showing WHAT these people died for, in talking about the Republic, about communism. One can say easily that it's a matter of brevity and the bounds of the form, but it feels like lingering shame, to really show and defend the Big C

If you’re at CXC in Columbus you can purchase “PULPING II: REALITY” from my compatriots Patterson and Mitch at Table 8A!!!

By that I mean it has some overneat conventions of narrative that cannot meet the terror of lacunae.

Im reading this by Paco Roca, “The Abyss of the Forgotten”(2023), about the disinterment of mass graves from the Francoist White Terror. In the more expository portions, Roca finds actual comics language. Amazing ligne claire and colour. Heart wrenching. Still, more TV than someone like Gfrörer.

we’ll form the backwards abraham lincoln brigades

canada’s parliament gave a standing ovation to charlie kirk, spain cancelled a 800 000 000 dollar contract with israel. ok maybe i move here.

police are calling the killer’s modus operandi “heavily vibes-based”

cooking in the Basque country with my mother

I made a traditional Día de San Juan effigy of Judas for my going away party to the Basque country. We also had 24 litres of kalimotxo

holler if you love Wheat and Canola

musical saw will be loved and loved again. “I want to be given a new purpose (saw life)” big one pager I did in 2018

the narcissism of smol differences

much like art, paleontology and entomology are treated as unserious pursuits, childish interests. I learned my dad has a client who is a paleontologist and his landlord calls him “dino boy”. He is a tall man in his 30s with a beard.

last night i was drunk at amigos without spending a dollar. beloved hometown hero they were saying. they were lifting me on their shoulders and kissing me on the cheeks in fact.

reading Revolutionary Road while visiting the soulless suburb I grew up in after being left by my theatre school dropout partner in an aimless time of life approaching thirty surrounded by settled people I resent before I leave for Europe

if i got into playing dungeon synth Id chop some fruit up with a glaive on stage and let people eat the fruit salad at the end in a fancy cornucopia

I’m suffering with grace btw

some dreams are close at hand to grab my friend

when you are broke as fuck and your banking app sends you a push notification like “consider having more money in your account” Whoa!! Good idea

I thought it was sam hyde for a second

my mom has mortifyingly framed this ms paint drawing of an edgy jak and daxter style elf i drew and printed out and mailed to my abuela in fourth grade
