ACME NOVELTY LIBRARY 16
There is an annoying phrase in dutch that says "life is for the fast ones", i hate to use it but in this case (the new book of chris ware) it is unfortunately true. This book will never be reprinted so if you wait too long you will miss out forever. It's a lame salespitch but i am just a middleperson trying to warn you. For four years long chris ware has been publishing books with stories which had previously already appeared in his acme novelty series (jimmy corrigan, quimby the mouse) and now it all changes with number 16 in the Acme Novelty Library. Anyway, what do we have in this book? Well, it looks stunning, 96 pages hardcover bound with goldprint. It's all Rusty Brown and features Chris Ware as an art teacher who cut off his ponytail with the motto "you could always grow it back". The first day of school for a girl and her kid brother, a burn out teacher and his 9 year old nerd (dork) son; all interwoven in this episode of an ongoing story.

PAPER RODEO 15
Paper Rodeo is a free comic newspaper from Providence closely related to the artists of Fort Thunder (or what's left of it). I managed to get my hands on a few issues of this paper, due to shipping costs and what not, i can’t really give it for free but 2 euros is fine. Each paper looks like an all out attack on a drawing board, like piirustuskoulus or so. Mostly unknown artists but Matt Brinkman, Ron Rege jr, Lloyd Dangle are popping up now and then.
