Zombie Christ... Christ! The scan was too small! Can't read the text... noooo...

Literary Loves I laughed out loud because I had read books by all of them and it just shot a ray of warmth in my heart

Moths in Spirits I love the moth in the last panel. It's really really beautifully drawn and it just stands out to me

The glug glug glug guy I've always, always loved, so thank you for scanning it! I've always thought the puking out of frame was genius.

Song of Solomon: you are salvation itself. I am floored.

i guess you'll have to buy a copy of Boom to read Zombie Christ, ha ha ha.

or you can find the january 2002 issue of Lauph to find it printed bigger than it will be here ...

Jesus Christ, Brad. I was just about to ask you to illustrate some comics I've been plotting in my head... loose series of 50s-style post-millenial 'alienation sci-fi horror' that I've been thinking of calling 'LA Horror'... like H.P. Lovecraft screenwritten by Warren Ellis and directed by David Byrne... but, uh, maybe I should just let you concentrate on your shit, because it is fantastic, man ( ... )

yes ... i forgot to include "Count Orlock and Son," as well as "Amoeba Go-Go," -- a two page comic that i'm still working on.

If I could send you one for free, I would -- hell, I'd like to send twenty and get them sold on the west coast ... but like i said, this is somewhat of a business venture by isaac and i ... not a get-rich-quick venture, but a venture that we would rather have pay for itself.

We're selling them for $3 each. I think that's a pretty fair price; not everyone will pay three bucks for comics, of course, but I would.

So if you have three spare dollars and a stamp and envelope, just mail it to:

B. Smith
112 Quail Run
Johnson City, TN 37601

.... is it bad that i put my address on the internet? ...

.... whatever.

Anyhoo, if ya send 3 bucks, I'll have a copy hot off the press for you.

I feel real scuzzy writing "it's only three bucks" -- like a huckster or scam artist, but trying to make a living using one's talents isn't a scam, is it?

You're a genius Bradley Smith...I really like Mondale the Drunk Fish, never seen that one before. I'll definately pay $$ for a comic and you don't even have to sign my copy. Ballard showed me the Mort Walker audio commentary on the Super 7 DVD...friggin brilliant. Also, you guys should have an exploding Nader centerfold.
