Does anyone think there is a market for a bi-annual, 50ish page comic anthology featuring a mix of new and established talent? Sort of like what Dirty Rotten Comix was doing five or six years ago. Because I have some ideas.

Love a good graphic memoir! Saw this recommended on @joestone.bsky.social's Insta the other day so and I just had to get my copy immediately.
If you enjoyed memoirs like 'Fun House', 'Calling Dr. Laura' or 'Blankets', I'd say you can safely blind buy this one.
