Dang! (2004)

Not sure what the actual issue number is here, as his website shows all kinds of minis called “Dang!”, but who cares? This, if you want the simplest description possible to explain it to your friends, looks vaguely like a combination of the panels of the early work of Chester Brown mixed with some of the misplaced adorableness of Steven Weissman. That’s the simple version, anyway. This is the stort of Herbert Hound not being able to fit in even if he does wear pants, the li’l orphans sleeping in a box and wearing on pair of pants between them for warmth, the Fashionistas making a ton of money off of the orphans, and Mullet making rude comments to everyone he sees. That’s the main focus of the comic. Then you have a story about Balls, one about a blunt hat and how cool it is, and one about Ted, who is an asshole. Great stuff all around, there’s not a thing to complain about here. It’s $3.50, this one you could probably get at the Top Shelf website, his other stuff and more information about the guy you could find at his website.
