please do not

another close-up from one of my abstract collage projects, "Personal Questions", made mostly from paper scraps I scavenged from magazines and mail. The biggest wrinkliest chunk of grey-pink is actually rice paper I dyed with beet and tumeric juice I made from veggie peelings, haha. Check out the alt text for more insights on all the different scraps! Patrons can also read more by clicking through the source link.

Comics Read 09/07-18/2023

Over this period I read Serial written and drawn by Terry Moore. Earlier this year I read Moore’s Ever, and in my post about it I mentioned that I would use my read of the already purchased Serial to decide whether or not to continue with the Terry Moore universe. I liked Serial more than Ever, but I still think it’s time for an indefinite hiatus from this universe. The fact that his current series is titled and about the Parker Girls does nothing to sway this decision. There weren’t any direct references to the Parker Girls in Serial (though there was a panel in which a character was misnamed Mrs. Parker, when the rest of the time she’s Mrs. Baker) but I still don’t think I like the direction enough to continue.

The story involves Zoe, the immortal murderous being in the body of a forever ten year old girl introduced in Rachel Rising. HereZoe finds herself on the trail of Jenni, a vigilante going after mostly pedophiliac men. Her kill list includes the wife of one, who happens to be a friend of Zoe’s from another life. By Jenni’s estimation she must have known about her husband and been an abuser too, or at least an enabler. Zoe disagrees, despite the fact that she had not been in touch with her friend for years.

There weren’t additional characters from other parts of the Terry Moore verse, (at least none that I recognized) but it was distinctly of the universe. The plots’s various backstories of childhood abuse are mostly excuses for these two women to get very violent. Attraction to images of women acting violently has always been a motivating factor for what gets Moore to make comics. During the climactic fight Zoe and Jenni argue about whether they have anything in common. Jenni declares that they do, but Zoe insists that they don’t. However, the only argument that Zoe offers that seemed to hold weight for me was pointing out that unlike her, Jenni didn’t have a sense of humor. I have to admit that I didn’t find any of the jokes Zoe cracked during their fight funny either, but she did make them. I am not sure Moore really has a side in this debate about his murderous characters. Ultimately, I don’t think the abuse described to justify the violence feels worth evoking for foddering this plot. Jenni’s anger is somewhat righteous, (even if her vigilantism is indefensible) but Moore undermines it with things like giving a lot of space to her abusers interpretation of their time together. He might have been going for some kind of ambiguity, but mostly just comes off as a sensationalist who should think of creating some limits to apply to himself.

The book does feel like an advance in Moore’s drawing, which includes some beautiful nature scenes and creative use of shading. But it also feels like a return to the anything goes, directionless parts of Strangers in Paradise, and I’m not feeling up for the ride.

Living in a Black and White World

Digging through the mazy warren that is the Geranium Lake Properties archive, I have unearthed several files dedicated to GLP comics that appeared in various zines, amateur fanworks and DIY media. Most of them were printed in black and white, and the two illustrations in this post were from a chapter in Words and Word Balloons, a thick (216 pages!) book-sized zine from ZC Pictorials*, edited by…
