Craghead is a poet

Welcome to Madinkbeard. If you enjoy this post you could subscribe to the RSS feed to receive upcoming posts or browse the archives to see past posts. I also create a twice weekly webcomic called Things Change: The Metamorphoses Comic

Top Shelf has new a Warren Craghead work up, “A Flame Expelled.” If anyone can be called a poet of comics, it is Craghead. I really need to get my ass in gear and write something about his How to Be Everywhere. He uses rhythm, repetition, and lay-out with both words and images in a way that creates something beautiful and elusive.

Thanks Derek. I’d really be interested to hear your thoughts on HTBE…
