Lunarcy
Reviewed by R. Krauss
Lunarcy A mini comic by Josh Blair Blog: Josh Blair is the editor of the quarterly mini comic anthology Candy or Medicine. He brings the same high-quality production standards to his latest solo effort. Lunarcy explores the outer reaches of planet anthropomorphics and transforms our beloved Moon into a cranky, sarcastic crater-face. Each page sports a full page adventure of our lunar neighbor cutting-up on Earth politics, culture, or whatever else crosses over to its darker side. I was surprised and delighted to see how many good gags Blair could come up with using basically the same format and lonely planet persona. Lunarcy is a fun read and well worth the price of the trip. |

Been reading comics: since I started reading Marvel comics in Junior High School.
Review Bio: After several years I discovered titles like Zap and Bijou at a headshop and was seduced by the freedom and variety they offered. When the new-wave comix era sprouted from the seeds of the undergrounds, I quickly joined the ranks of other struggling cartoonists with phenomenally low print runs. After almost a decade of small press comix, I retired and made a solemn vow never to return. Several years later the Internet happened and over time many of my favorite new-wave cartoonists got online. The bug bit again and I started exploring the new crop of small press cartoonists. Today's explosion of small press comics is more exciting than any time I've ever seen.
Favorites: Papercutter, Not My Small Diary, Slam Bang, Comic Eye, stuff from Main Enterprises and Weird Muse, to name a few.
