Some of you may not realize this, but most people who create and read comics are also into other things… including music… We try to include some of our thoughts on music, movies, and video games in every issue.
Here’s a sample of our music articles… particularly something I wrote for the December issue, 8 of the Best Albums You’ve Never Heard Of. Graphic design on this one by Michael Nelsen. Article covers Burning Airlines, The Bronx, Comes with the Fall, Blacktop, The Drags, The Hi-Fives, Texas is the Reason, and Rocket From the Crypt.
