Oily October

Hey Oily Fiends,

Anybody still read this thing? Just want to say I have 5 new fresh Oily Comics ready to go this month.
Very exciting batch. I have so many good comics coming soon. And it isn't too late to get a 3 month subscription. Also want to give thanks to Rachel Dukes for being the very first Oily intern and helping me put these books together. Rachel is a student at The Center for Cartoon Studies and is no stranger to the comic books arts.

7 new comics in the Oily Shop

7 new comics in the Oily Shop today!  Yeah! SEVEN!
We have Moose #1-6 from Belgium's own Max de Radigués.  I've been enjoying the hell out of this comic since Max started it last summer. Max is so good at cartooning teenagers and their awkward lives.
And then we have the debut of Melissa Mendes's follow up to her fantastic Freddy Stories, Lou #1. Lou is about a 9 year old tomboy and her kind of messed up family. We are excited for this new ongoing comic from Melissa. She connects to the live of kids like as if she still was one.
We love kids and teenagers at Oily.
Coming soon...The End of the Fucking World #5.

Max in Angouleme

My buddy Max is up for an award for his book White River Junction at the International comics(BD) festival in Angouleme, France this week. I wish him well.  Here are two panels from the book that feature Melissa and I. Max is one of our favorite people. I miss living in the same town as him.
