Fantagraphics, who publish the best comics, have just announced they had some bad luck, made a mistake, and now need to sell a lot of comics to survive intact. I’m not a comics afficionado, but throughout the nineties I’d always be looking forward to the next issue of Hate or Eightball (from which came the wonderful Ghost World movie). They also publish the impossibly gorgeous and sad Acme Novelty Library by Chris Ware, the long-running Love and Rockets, and stuff by Jim Woodring, Robert Crumb, Joe Sacco and many more. So go and buy a load of great comics and make someone’s day better! (via Haddock)
