Honored to have my review of The Tumor in the Clay by @iamnfrancis.bsky.social (released by @driftwoodpress.bsky.social ) published on the @graphicmedicine.bsky.social website: www.graphicmedicine.org/comic-review... It's a fascinating work with stunning visuals. Check it out.

The Tumor in the Clay | Graphic Medicine
Lacking text narration, the graphic novel retains legibility through a flexible four panel layout of stacked horizontal frames whose aspect ratio comfortably alludes to cinematic storytelling.

Look what came in the mail today! Dead Uncles: Poems/Folklore/Reverie (from @driftwoodpress.bsky.social) by @benkline.bsky.social. @emmabolden.bsky.social calls it “a gorgeously searing exploration of Southern ideals of family, gender, and gentility.” Can’t wait to dive into this one!
The chapbook Dead Uncles by Ben Kile and published by Driftwood Press shows a painting of a white man in t-shirt and shorts falling and hitting the ground. Cover image by Phil Hale.
