As Now hits its landmark tenth issue, what better time to bring back the cover artist who launched the series? Painter and cartoonist Rebecca Morgan returns with one of her signature depictions of the underbelly of America. Meanwhile, the issue also features new work by a number of familiar names, such as Steven Weissman, Tim Lane, and Walt Holcombe. Young Frances creator Hartley Lin contributes his first piece to the magazine, as does Italian cartoonist Sylvia Rocchi and American cartoonist M.S. Harkness -- with a piece about competitive weightlifting during the Covid-19 pandemic! Along with other surprises, Now #10 includes one other special feature: a tribute to the late cartoonist Richard Sala (1954-2020), a cartoonist who built his long career contributing to various anthologies of the 1980s, including the legendary Raw magazine. We are pleased to present nine previously unpublished pages of comics by Sala, all created as an art student in the 1970s and presaging a prolific and brilliant oeuvre to come. Also: comics by Nick Thorburn, Jacob Weinstein, Joakim Drescher, and Julia Gfrörer.… (altro)
I think it's amusing that two of the better stories I ever read in this anthology of nonsensical alternative comics gibberish are about athletic events.
Kudos to Jacob Weinstein for his piece on table tennis in India -- which I truly hope is the opening chapter of a longer work -- and to M.S. Harkness for her peek behind the scenes at a powerlifting competition in the early days of COVID shutdowns.
The rest of the book consists of the disposable gobbledygook that edgy cartoonists are constantly trying to pass off as art.
