“NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO…”

Here’s a Limited Time offer (?) for January and February.

Subscribe for 2024 directly from the FSHOP

Are you a subscriber? Wanna try it? Wanna come back, but avoid all the Patreon packaging?

Remember, I don’t care either way, so you may as well do it!

Subscribers get: e-zines most months, all print zines I make during the subscription (approx. 5/year), plus anything I self-publish. You also get bonus stuff like prints or zines that I only make for subscribers.

some of what went out in the mail in 2023

There is a ton of unpublished content in these “F” electronic zines…on the other hand maybe for a good reason: it’s not good? You decide!

 

The higher level subscribers (currently only available through Patreon) also have received custom drawings, studio detritus, and get first “crack” anytime I get around to selling new “original art”. (secret link for upcoming sales). Occasionally you also get discount codes you can apply to new items that appear in the FShop or Hidden Store.

OK So

you can subscribe on Patreon here: (LINK)

you can subscribe directly from me here (RECOMMENDED) (LINK),

** Notes on Designing Graphic Novels - electronic book version ::

New in the shop:
I wrote a zine last year about my experience designing The River at Night, the hardcover version that came out in 2019. A print version (which you can buy (and should, it’s good and the way this was intended to be read) by clicking here) is now ALSO available.

This electronic version (PDF) has many extra pages not in the print edition.

You can read some excerpts here.

See below for how to buy the electronic version, or see here for everything else that is also available.

3 RIVERSIDE COMPANIONS

Since my book The River at Night came out in 2019 I have put out occasional zines related to the book, but which I’d like to think are interesting on their own, too.

Here’s how you can get these zines. There are several ways:

You can buy them individually:

 
 
 

Or as a bundle:

 

Or, if you subscribe right now you’ll get #s 1 and 3 (see here for more details), as well as access to alternate expanded digital versions.


Super Cheap Art Manifesto

I occasionally sell my original pages or art, and it’s time again. This is one of the main ways I make money (I don’t make much money) but to be honest I’d RATHER focus my attention on actually drawing and writing, and so I don’t do this as often as I would like. On the other hand, markets, prices…who knows. It’s also a lot of work to photograph and haggle and ship this stuff, etc. However, and this is all to say: from beyond the depths of infinity I am grateful, in advance, for your patience.

So if YOU make a lot of money, (you know who you are) and are interested in supporting my ability to house feed insure etc. myself, this is one of the main ways we can get money from your bank account into mine. (You can also subscribe to my various publications here and a couple of the tiers will get you drawings too, occasionally. These subscribers will have first “crack” at the sale of these pages in the coming weeks).

If you’d like to buy any of these drawings, I’m letting you know, putting you on notice, they will be on sale soon, along with about **25** other pages and drawings, small, medium, and large. (Commissions are also “open.”)

For the time being this link is still active, but will come down soon. There are many other pages over there. Check it out for any deal$ that will be going away soon (meaning prices will go up).


New zine - F p-zine #3

New zine, F p-zine 3. This is the third part of the F2020 Trilogy, which can also be bought as a bundle. See below

 

Some Ideas

Some zine ideas 2020

- A magazine: “DUH.” Like MAD, political, dumb, current events and culture. “A DUH look at _______” I would write the whole thing, like Kurtzman. PG13, antiwar, anti-fascist, anti-racist, vegan, anti-everything bad, insane

- Fire and cloud drawings, zine, named “Particulates”

-zine, b/w on color paper (maybe riso?) “Trump Buddies.” Pictures and drawings of groups of men dressed up like Trump “Patriots.” Ironic overall but not a hint of condescension in any formal choices. The logo should be “cool” in a general way that would appeal to 65-75 year old white men. Liam Neeson, Bruce Willis, action movie typography. Classified ads in the back.

- “Therapy Notes.” Cartoonists share their doodles from telehealth therapy sessions.

- Idea for a body of work based on the stories of people who overcame a struggle. Very simple and straightforward execution. Documentary style, Joe Sacco, realism. Mix of levels of struggle, diverse stories.

- Idea for comics series based on the experience of convicts, ex-cons, etc. “Jail Comics.” Actual comic book with old fashioned cover, 2 per year. Could pair (young or old) cartoonists with ex-cons, or write letters to prisoners to get scripts.

- “I have an idea for a name for a zine or blog about books: Shelf Life!”  “Half Shelf Life!” “Shelfish Life!”  “I’m allergic to Shelfish Life!”

October 2021 "F" electronic magazine

As you know, I make monthly “e-zines” for subscribers ($3/month), and now I’m going to start selling them as well here on my store for a bit more since subscribing is the way to go.

It’s a .pdf file, formatted like a 5.5x7 zine, 40 pages. See below for thumbnails of what’s in this issue.
