Comics, reviews, interviews and more!  32 pages on newsprint with glossy color cover.

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!

LIMITED TIME SPECIAL PRICE!

FROM THE ARCHIVES: We just came across a nice stack of copies of this unique, personal expression of video viewing.

Here's the hype-up from its publisher, Floating World Comics:

"Features 300 of Tim Goodyear’s movie reviews with hand drawn recreations of the movie’s original advertising or VHS box art.

In 2009, Tim Goodyear turned his sketchbook into a journal of the movies he watched, focusing on VHS & DVD for an eclectic & personal film history. For each video he redrew the original box art & substituted the text with his own reflections. Video Tonfa is more than a book of movie reviews, it’s a chronic memoir of over 300 video visitations.

Tim Goodyear is a fundamental figure in Pacific Northwest DIY media who has been involved with comics, zines, and video for many years. His publishing imprint, Teenage Dinosaur, has published works by Matt Furie, Julia Gfrorer, Dash Shaw, and others."

“Goodyear has allowed the simple love of film and the evocation of pleasure or pain that each bring out in him to be the focus, filling up the page with a visual diary that is not unlike the ones of your youth.” –Forces of Geek

“Video Tonfa is a great read for film watchers, casual and cult-lover alike. Goodyear’s reviews are both personal and unpredictably hilarious.” –Portland Mercury

“A fascinating and consistently hilarious account of the omnivorous maturation of one man’s film diet over the course of nearly seven years.” –Paste Magazine
