Wowee Zonk #4


Here's the full wrap-around cover I did for Wowee Zonk 4, published by Koyama Press.  I am very excited for you to get your hands on a copy!  Here's a little info on the new book:

Created and edited by Toronto-based artists Patrick Kyle, Ginette Lapalme and Chris Kuzma, Wowee Zonk has been a champion of unconventional comics work and Canadian content from its inception as a hand-printed zine in 2007. Since that time, Wowee Zonk has grown exponentially; spanning three issues, it has published the work of eleven up-and-coming Toronto artists. The third issue was published by Koyama Press in 2010 and was nominated for the Pigskin Peters Award (which recognizes non-traditional and avant-garde comics) at the 2011 Doug Wright Awards.
Wowee Zonk 4 is the largest and most ambitious issue to date, featuring a number of Canadian and international contributors, each with their own unique approach to storytelling and image making. This issue will include new works by Andrei Georgescu, Adam Buttrick, Steph Davidson, Alex Schubert, Mark Connery, Ryan Dodgson, Donald Dixon, Benjamin Hettinga, and Marc Bell, as well as contributions from the editors Patrick Kyle, Ginette Lapalme and Chris Kuzma.  
Wowee Zonk 4 explores the possibilities of an entirely unique medium and continues the tradition of turning cartooning on its head.

 That's a panel from my story.  Your first chance to pick up a copy will be at this year's Toronto Comic Arts Festival, where we will be debuting the book.  Ginette Lapalme, Patrick Kyle and myself will once again be curating the small press space at the the show, so do your best to stop by.  Our tables will be overflowing with delectable items for your perusal.
See you there.
