A Bonus Moment of Comics

John Linton Roberson has been showing this page from Joe Matt's Peepshow strip collection from Kitchen Sink Press. It features him and Bernie Mireault as two young cartoonists scraping by. Even before Mireault's recent suicide and Matt's recent death after living a meager and miserly existence for the last several years (albeit willingly), John said it worked as a cautionary tale and urged him to not be broke and destitute in life. I have more thoughts about Joe's work in particular. Particularly the last work he ever did.
