The The Zine Volume 5 Issue 4

We have a big issue with lots of comics, art, great stories and only one page to introduce it so lets get started!
The beautiful cover by Shadow marks a change in style for his work. It seems more confident and less heavily rendered. Time will tell if he chooses to keep with this new approach, but I for one like where he’s going.
Matabo created a gruesome back cover for us and also what looks like some Jhonen Vasquez fan art (page 4). I hope to see more of his original work in the future, but this will tide me over till then.
Star is all over this issue starting with several animal pictures (page 21, 22, 24); a new comic (page 26-29); and some illustrations for Larka’s story (page 41, 43). Where does she find the time to make all this great work and still get her homework done? Star, you are getting your homework done, right? STAR!!! Read more…

The The Zine Volume 4 Issue 10

There’s Anakin Skywalker, not even ten years old, piloting a pod racer around a tight curve. Another pod is closing in on him, the other pilot (who is not human, nor a close approximation) snarls or maybe burps, when suddenly his pod bursts into flame. A small clique of Tuskan Raiders (or Sand People to the uninitiated) is perched above the bend, the one holding a still smoking rifle raises it over his head and bellows an all to familiar sound.

This sequence takes all of five or maybe seven seconds. It does not advance the plot and it does not advance character, and yet here it is. Read more…

The The Zine Volume 4 Issue 10: Special Manga Supplement

What is this? Why is it laid out in this strange way? Why can’t I read these comics like other comics?

What you are looking at is a peculiar and beautiful product of trade, war, occupation, and several generations of cultural cross pollination. All of this taking place between two countries: the United States and Japan.

It all started in the 1930’s when American publishers started packaging old newspaper comic strips into what we today call the comic book. Read more…

The The Zine Voume 4 Issue 9

Whether you are feeling the heat of deadline pressures of the warmth of summer this issue has the perfect theme for you: fire!

Did you see our new Zine header on the cover? Chiefly designed by A.I. and if you look in the upper left corner you will see the mini version of the new comic club logo chiefly designed by Kanami. Both the logo and the header contain embellishments by Kage, and Matabo. Thank you to everyone who sent in submissions there were so many great ideas! Read more…

The The Zine Volume 4 Issue 8

This is the Demonic Issue of The The Zine. Wonderful happy topics like love or puppies can be fun, but there is something about the scary dark and dirty topics that gets my mind spinning.

Building on the success of Shine we are publishing more work beyond The The Zine. Given our theme for this issue it seems appropriate to be releasing Kurai The Demon Kid.

Our icon contest is over, but we are still trying to pick a winner. There were so many great entries. Read more…

Kurai The Demon Kid

What is this strange little thing?

It is Kurai The Demon Kid: a hellish action tale ground from paper, pen, and graphite by its creator: Kari. Effort and pain poured into pages once, twice, and sometimes three times over in a search for coherence.

It is easy to cast these pages aside and disregard them as something less than ‘pretty’. Most of us seek some ideal form, a perfect truth, the next step, respect. In this effort we search for the easiest path Read more…

The The Zine Volume 4 Issue 7

The topic for this issue of The The Zine is Random. What on earth were we thinking with such a random topic? That could mean anything! Flinging the doors open to such creative possibilities is overwhelming! For some of our contributors pent up objectives, an open topic, and spring break all came together to produce some serious output!

Speaking of output: Waoooweee! What a week! The Harding Comic Club is releasing two, count them, TWO publications simultaneously! Read more…
