Garden of the Spheres

by Linnea Sterte

Linnea Sterte is a fantastically talented Swedish comics maker slowly but surely building a (well-deserved) following here in North America, largely through publications released by PEOW (now PEOW2). From the lush, hallucinatory Stages of Rot to the playfully artful Frog in the Fall and then, with World Heist, her first, tentative steps into world building which has blossomed into full flower here. Long in the works (since at least 2021), A Garden of the Spheres is an epic – and stunningly beautiful – work of comics fantasy, of the world-building, science-fictional variety. The world she has built for us here is a world of gods and monsters, one that evokes our pre-industrial past, when humans lived more in harmony with nature, while simultaneously embodying a magical and mythical halcyon age where occurrences and abilities that we, today, would call supernatural are simply presented as de facto, and so constitutes an alternate, fantastical history, a kind of “never was”. It is a world of creators and creations, of rulers and ruled – and also those who move in the spaces between – deliberately presented in a manner that forefronts the animal passions, notably cruelty and violence (and their corollary, pride), that constitute human natures. Rather than a straightforward story arc, A Garden of Spheres presents a series of far-flung episodes in which readers find themselves repeatedly plunged in medias res into different times and places, confronting a variety of societies and beings, with no prefatory remarks or explanations. This narrative strategy provides readers with a disorienting experience that is analgous to that of traveling unaccompanied through foreign lands, where there is no option other than figuring things out on one's own; thus conscripting each reader into the world building process. Sterte makes this process a pleasure by bringing this world alive on the page in crisp colorful comics art that displays such a level of mastery that it appears almost effortless. Working in both full color and black & white as per the dramatic requirements of the scenes depicted, A Garden of the Spheres provides readers with a ticket out of the dispiriting world in which we find ourselves today, and into an enchanted realm of mythic civilizations operating in harmony with the natural world, full of inexplicable magic and overseen by living gods, demi-gods, new people and old people. Of course, in the end, the world here is but our own world made strange. Yet it is through this estrangement and its concomittant alienation that we are able to see our world from the outside, and so discover aspects previously hidden and unearth meanings previously ungraspable. This is the secret power of fantasy, a power which Sterte weilds to great effect here. This volume is Sterte's most substantial work to date, running 336 pages, craft printed on a choice of papers perfectly suited for the work, which allow the colors to recede or advance, to simmer or pop, so as to best convey the moment and mood, all signature bound in a softcover with French-flapped dustjacket; and it's only "Book One". You can get an online look at it HERE. And, when you have a moment to spare, you can learn more about where Linnea Sterte is coming from, and how she works in this engaging interview with Gina Gagliano on TCJ.com, HERE.

The Girl Who Flew Away

by Lee Dean(aka M. Dean)

We last heard from Lee Dean in 2018 when they produced the astonishingly accomplished I Am Young as "M. Dean." The Girl Who Flew Away is a highly intersectional work set in the USA's bicentennial year that centers on Greer Johnson, a Pittsburgh (!) girl from a troubled home and prey to unscrupulous older men who finds herself packed off to the Florida Keys as a result of an unplanned pregnancy. While new life grows inside her, she struggles to forge a workable identity within the highly mixed millleau within which she finds herself and find a way forward in 396 pages of confidently drawn and lushly colored comics in a horizontal (10" x 8") format that was likely chosen as this work began life online. And there's more to the story as the protagonist finds herself imaginatively (and impulsively) interacting with characters from her recurring dreams, molding the dreams into narratives that are fixed in a historical past and work to help her gain perspective on her own, present situation through a sort of identification with her own creative abreaction.

kuš! mono #16: WISPS

by Amanda Baeza

Ms. Baeza roams far and wide over the terrain of comics in this excellent collection of her work of the last eight years or so. There's such a stylistic variety on hand here that readers will be forgiven for thinking they're reading an anthology rather than a collection of work by a single creator, and all of it good! The central theme is reaching out across barriers – spacial, temporal, emotional – and connecting through (comics) art; mending wounds of the past and finding strength to move forward into the future.

kuš! mono #17: Vibe Shift

by Noah Van Sciver

Hold onto your hats, it's Noah Van Sciver's turn at bat for the Mono-Kuš series (it's #17, for those who like to keep track). Mr. Van Sciver delivers a whopping twenty-five – count 'em! – short works including "Where Do Comics Come From?" "Comix Collection", "Wolf Nerd", "Freak Out", "Freak Face", "Hoof Heart", "Yoga", "Boring", "Spacehawk", "Abby's Road" and plenty more! We've definitely read some of these before, mostly (perhaps all) in (probably all now out of print issues of) his self-published comics and also Blammo, but there are also definitely some new (as in previously unpublished) ones here. How much of this will be new to you will depend on how long you've been reading Noah Van Sciver's work (these works go back at least fifteen years) and how closely you've been following it (as some of these are from here-today-gone-tomorrow small batch works). For anyone who is new to Noah Van Sciver, or only knows his long form work, like Fante Bukowski, this is a great place to start reading his intimate short-form work.

AltComics Magazine #7

by Katie Lane, Blaise Larmee, Jason Overby, Clair Gunther, Matthew Thurber, Frank Santoro

After a hiatus of seven-years, this 2dCloud series returns for, fittingly, its seventh issue in the form of a 40-page standard comic book size publication that is anything but standard. Heady, challenging, occasionally frustrating, but ultimately rewarding comics by a half dozen comics makers fill these pages with text and images in combination, juxtaposition, and in sequence. A variety of tools and media were employed in their creation, including pencil, pen & ink and/or brush, marker, and watercolor; sometimes remixed on a computer. Experimental Comics for less!

It took us a minute, but we at last have copies of the second issue of Bernadette! Edited and Published by Angela Fanche and Katie Lane, Bernadette is an oversized (10" x 13") woman-centric, community-building comics anthology.

Light It Shoot It

by Graham Chaffee

If you're looking for a graphic novel possessed of a sturdily structured story, set in a realistically portrayed recent past, featuring well developed characters, and with an underlying moral and ethical code, then Light It Shoot It is worth a closer look. If you also like stories that feature a gritty, behind-the-scenes look at Hollywood, and have a specific affinity for the 1970s, well then you can stop looking: Light It Shoot It is your destination. Graham Chaffee knows his way around the graphic novel form, having been at it for over thirty years now, producing a series of solidly built, engaging and entertaining works of which Light It Shoot It is the latest, and most fully realized.

NKF: Piet Zwart’s Avant-Garde Catalog for Standard Cables, 1927–1928

by Piet Zwart, w/ text by Philip B. Meggs, Paul Stirton

Letterform Archive's edition of Piet Zwart's 1927-1928 NKF Catalog is a dream come true. A heavyduty slipcase contains a facsimile reproduction of the orignal catalog along with a supplementary volume (beautifully designed with a strong nod to Zwart's personal æsthetic) containing introductory/explanatory/historical essays, along with a generous selection of additional graphic work by Zwart, as well as translations of the Dutch text of the NKF catalog – all beautifully printed, of course. Take a moment to visit the publisher's page to get a good idea of what Zwart was up to HERE (this work still feels so modern that it's hard to believe this work is now just shy of 100 years old!) This is just one of the amazing books from Letterform Archive that we now have in stock.

Fielder #4

by Kevin Huizenga
It took a minute, but Fielder #4, the latest from Kevin Huizenga, is now in stock at Copacetic! This is a comics magazine with artistic and intellectual heft to it; as well as physical – the cover and paper stocks are both sturdier and stronger than the norm, which is a good call, as this is a work that is likely to be subjected to repeated reads. This issue is primarily focused on – and is particularly strong in – observational cartooning. No one turns the mind inside out and shows the mechanics of its inner workings in comics form better than Huizenga. The ongoing chatter and endless micro-decisions that make up our day-to-day inner lives are depicted in situ as our hero, Glenn Ganges ponders the nature of reality, debates various routes and shortcuts, remembers choices made and the processes employed, all while he strolls, meanders, and otherwise directs his feet along the pathways and byways of the mythical midwestern pen & ink locale of Fielder, Michiana. In the climactic central sequence, Huizenga proves once again the unique expressive and communicative power of comics by pithily conveying how truly apt the thought cloud symbol is, revealing the parallels in structure and dynamics between the meanderings of thought in the mind and the meanderings and condensations of moisture in the atmosphere. Something that is well worth pondering – and in so doing, creating thought clouds of one's own. The issue concludes with an affectionate homage to the (somewhat esoteric) world of fast pitch softball and the continuing saga of... Bona! Fielder #4 is a work worth savoring, and to return to again and again... and you can get started now, by visiting this preview we posted on the Copacetic Tumbler.

Every Day Is Today

by Anders Nilsen

This 68-page, squarebound, oversize (9" x 12 /4"; same dimensions as the individual Tounges issues, but twice the number of pages/thickness) collection, printed in black & white, full color and monochrome, comes complete with a fold out back cover (think French-flap, and then some) along with a center double-gatefold. It is filled with an eclectic selection of work that Anders Brekhus Nilsen created over the last decade or so for a variety of publications (such as The New York Times and The New York Review of Books) and in a variety of different contexts (such as zines and minicomics) and includes the multi-format interactive project piece, "Conversation Gardening." Every Day Is Today is a unique agglomeration of comics and illustration that embodies Nilsen's design excellence throughout and, by turns, showcases his artistic prowess, illustrative genius and quirky sense of humor. In other words, it's a treat! We've posted a preview gallery up on the Copacetic Tumblr, HERE.

Metadoggoz

Metadoggoz

by Bérénice Motais de Narbonne

Metadoggoz looks amazing! 21st Century urban-techno-grunge of drugs dance and dogs presented in a manga-inflected mash-up of Matsumoto, Miller, Muñoz and more! Motais de Narbonne's gritty renderings of dense urban sprawl feels a little like a black & white action/adventure version of Brecht Evens's City of Belgium. The 200+ pages of Metadoggoz weave a multi-thread, multi-part saga of outsiderdom. The figurative space at the center of the narrative – but at the margins of reality – is called The Gap, and provides a refuge amidst the chaos of late-capitalism sprawl for those that are different, that can't fit in, that can't breath. Here is home.

Love and Rockets, Volume IV #17

by Gilbert & Jaime Hernandez

And, speaking of Love and Rockets, the Year of The Fire Horse – which occurs only once every 60 years – starts off propitiously by its Lunar New Year having coincided with the release of the latest issue! As far as good signs go, it doesn't get any better. So, here's hoping this occasion of synchronicity portends a shift in the alignment of forces that will bring positive change for good in the coming year. In this issue, on the Jaime front: Maggie gets old(er); parents approach death; the return of Esther (last seen when...?); Ray and Ignacio reminisce about high school daze; Vivian gets mad. In Beto's world: We spy upon Fritz in a spirit world and get a peek at Pipo's holy order before getting into the thick of things with the back and forth between Fritz's film shoots and love affairs. Love and Rockets!

Spy Seal: The Corten Steel Phoenix

by Rich Tommaso

Here's an Hergé homage for armchair adventurers of all ages – with a (Carl) Barksian twist: while the drama is complex and multi-layered, the characters are all cartoon ("funny") animals. Also, while it is set in the Tintin era and takes place entirely in Europe, Spy Seal is an Anglocentric adventure with the titular character being recruited by MI-6. Clean cut, cleanly drawn (as in ligne claire), full color, escapist fun that is, the equivalent length of a pair of Tintin albums: that's entertainment!

The Unsinkable Ship of Fools

by Jonas Goonface

There's no point in beating around the bush here: The Unsinkable Ship of Fools is straight-up pornographic erotica of the XXX variety, and, as such, is an “Adults Only” publication. Opening at a hobo camp with a solo train-hopper who serves, more-or-less, to lead the reader into the experiences to follow, the narrative, such as it is, takes place in, on or around a carnival train moving through an indeterminate, ahistorical era. This 250 page, full color book is composed of ten chapters, structured like a collection of a ten-issue comic book mini-series, with each “issue” a self-contained adventure centering on a particular sexual adventure/escapade. A full spectrum of sizes, shapes, colors, types, sexual preferences, gender identities, and role playing combine with elements of fantasy – and the fantastic – to create pure comic book porn. The creator of this work, erstwhile Pittsburgher and one-time Copacetic customer, Jonas Goonface is clearly inspired by his material here and has produced the most fully realized work of his career. The artwork throughout is lush and colorful, playful and dynamic. Yet, despite being thoroughly pornographic, it is weirdly wholesome. All is rendered in such a way that the characters portrayed are shown abandoning themselves to their sexual adventures so thoroughly that each seems to be able to release their inner child for romps in the playground of sexuality. And, intriguingly, within the framework of the small society that makes up this particular ship of fools, a clear benefit of this playful abandon is that it enables an egalitarian spirit to reign over the fellow travelers populating it, who fully embody – and, in the process, provide a penetrating insight into – the classic dictum, "from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs."

Wheels

Wheels Comics

by Andy Wieland

Get ready for a middle-American miasma of drinking, dreams, dead-ends, despondency, dull despair and death – along with plenty of smoking (and a little bit of gambling). Andy Wieland’s latest, Wheels Comics is composed of a dozen or so pieces filling 36, black & white, magazine-size pages of comics (+ 2 more on the inside covers, with yellow!). These stories are not, however, all doom and gloom. They are leavened with a wry gallows humor, and, most importantly, powered by formally strong artwork that shares attributes with Tim Lane’s Happy Hour in America and, within the series of interludes that are interspersed throughout the book, there is a solid – and rarely seen, but very welcome – consanguinity with the work of John Hankiewicz.

Comics Blogger #15
edited by Thomas Campbell
The latest and greatest issue – at least size-wise, for sure (and here by a considerable margin) – of Comics Blogger has arrived. 3/4 of this 108-page (!) issue is devoted Frank Santoro’s Destination Dealers Con (DDC) that was held here in Pittsburgh (well, technically, just outside of it) on Sunday, November 22, 2025. Comics Blogger writer, editor & publisher, Thomas Campbell came up from North Carolina with the aim of documenting the show in a series of interviews with the exhibitors and shares with us here the fruits of his labor. He also managed to find time to score an amazing selection of great comics (that he enumerates here) that lend credence to DDC’s premise of being an old school show that also features new school comics. Here’s a list of the DDC interviewees (It is worth noting that these interviews were conducted in a room full of other conversations going on simultaneously in the background. As a result, there are transcription errors and lacunae scattered through many – but not all – of the interviews. So, readers should be prepared to encounter the occasional “of” that should be a “for” [and vice versa] along with similar quasi-homophonic errors, as well as, here and there, a missing word that will have to be inferred by a best guess. Also, the conversational tone of the on-the-fly, informal interviews collected here, which make them engaging reads, goes hand in hand with the hesitations, reversals and switched lanes of thought of conversations conducted amidst a crowd. So, again, be prepared to encounter inadvertent transpositions and double-negatives that may momentarily cloud meaning, but will take only a moment of contextual interpretation to clarify; “gems in the rough,” so to speak.): Frank Santoro, Sammy Harkham, Kevin Huizenga, Tom Scioli, Jim Rugg, John Kelly, Nate McDonough, Audra Stang, Cameron Arthur, Brain Baynes, Chris Pitzer, Mike Seamans, Bill Boichel, and Bill Wyman (sic; actually it’s Bill Wehmann, of Doomed Planet Comics fame… it would have been interesting if it had been Bill Wyman, tho’…). There’s plenty of personality and history (along with some myth-making) on hand in these interviews; much to glean. The interview with Sammy Harkham is a particular stand out. One of the best interviews with him that we’ve come across; full of insights and empathy. And then DDC organizer (and cover artist), Frank Santoro gets a chance to stretch out a bit in a fairly lengthy interview. This issue also features a whoppin’ twenty pages of incisive reviews of recent comics followed by host of “Incidental Announcements” of upcoming publications and events that will keep readers in the know and bring them up to speed in the world of small press and self-published comics. Plus “Monkeys,” a new, two-page comic by Sara Lautman!
