Siegfried & Humie by Matt & Jeanie
Bryan
A story of a…hmmm…that’s giving too much
away. I’ll just say this is a neat little
comic with humorous, surprising little twists.
Well rendered and well told, also!
A Cornelia Story by Kel Crum
I’m a bit disappointed…that Kel only did two
pages for the SPACE Anthology! His
Cornelia character is kinda a strange girl who always seems to get in
trouble. Sometimes her fault, sometimes
not. Be sure to check out his website
for lots more laughs!
Nocturnal Contemplations by Kris Lachowski
Ah, the things people say in bed! This story sums it all up nicely in two
pages! In a blue hue, but I’m not sure
why!
Oddly Matched Even by Mike Carroll
Mike Carroll has literally created a
bazillion stick figure characters and he uses about 100 of them in this little
story! Okay, slight hyperbole
there. But Mike always entertains and
Oddly Matched is a funny story that should make anyone smile! (When you’re feeling down, reading some of
Mike’s stuff is sure to pick you up!)
The Possum in I'll Take Door Number Four, Bob by Blair Kitchen
Blair Kitchen’s art reminds me of a Mad
Magazine humorous style. His Possum
character is a nerdy kid who cannot be killed due a zombifying tic tac. Really!
Go to his website and read some Possum!
It’s really good stuff!
Tales of the Night Watchman - The Long Fall by Dave Kelly & Lara Antal
The one thing I don’t like about Kelly &
Antal’s strip is that the “cover art” is much different from the art in the
story. But this little tale about a
zombie-fighting mystery man called the Night Watchmen is well told. The interplay
between the two leads is very good. The
philosophical narration I liked less, but it does set a tone.
Nothin' but a Hound… Something by Joseph
Davidson
Max is an alien plant in the shape of a man
traveling with a man called “Old Max” and a dog with no name. This tale is of their encounter with a
broken down bus. It reminds me of some
of the little tales in Paul Chadwick’s Concrete series. Great character interaction!! Perhaps my favorite story in the book!
Occupied by Ray Tomczak
I laughed.
I think you will too.
Fibula by Maryanne
Rose Papke
A story about a soap
bubble. Proof you can take any topic
and turn it into an entertaining comic!
But that might be over analyzing things…
And that’s it for
the SPACE Anthology! Next weekend I’ll
be at the SPACE convention (table 130) and I’ll post a report as soon as I
can! (I also have to review the latest
episode of Out With Dad soon….)
Here’s some links for the artists mentioned above:
