SMALL PRESS PASS introduces you to the world of independent and small press comicbooks. As
small press titles are
often hard to locate on the vastness that is the Internet, Adam will be doing the legwork for you and showcasing a different
title each week so that you can stay up to date on the unbelievable variety of comicbooks available from places other than
the main four or five companies out there that you already know. Get ready to widen your domain of comicbook knowledge and
enter the world of the Small Press.
I met Emily McGuinness at HeroesCon where she gave me a copy of a minicomic she had inked, called Somewhere in
Between. I enjoyed the story about a young woman off to fend for herself for the first
time, considering what she leaves behind and what lies ahead. Although the theme is well known, the execution is what makes
it so entertaining. Writer/artist Megan Levens provides a clean art style perfectly suited to the story, inked to perfection
by McGuinness. Somewhere in Between currently has no publisher, so anyone interested should contact the creators
through their sites listed above. I would normally go on about the virtues of the book, but I have the entire first issue
posted below so I will let the work speak for itself.
Genre: Drama
You will enjoy this series if you like: Gilmore Girls, Strangers in Paradise, Everwood
Where to find it: On this very page (below), or at a convention
