Pals at the Press Fair

Aw, ain’t that sweet? That’s the awesomely talented Howard Hardiman (and special friend) minding his comics and some issues of Pink Mince at the table he very kindly shared with us at last weekend’s Alternative Press Fair. As always, it’s a lot more fun to sell copies in person, where you get to meet the people who care enough to shell out a pound or two. Also: lots of cute guys wandering about.

Lost Lifestyle

I sometimes worry that Pink Mince #5 — The Louche, Limp-Wristed Lifestyle — got a little lost in the shuffle once the STARKERS issue was released. #5 was a fantastic issue, with lots of great writing and even a colour centrefold (“color centerfold”, for my native countrymen). It’s also the biggest issue of Pink Mince yet — 52 pages, all for a cool 5 quid (postage included).

Oh, Superman

jockohomo:

Secret Identity: The Fetish Art of Superman’s Co-creator Joe Shuster – Sensational book that showcases rare and recently discovered naughty artwork by Joe Shuster co-creator of the DC Comics character Superman. Pervy illustrations were created in the early 1950s when Shuster was sueing DC Comics over the copyright of Superman and was down on his luck. The racy material was published in an obscure series of magazines called “Nights of Horror,” that was strictly “under the counter” and consequently banned by the U.S. Senate. Without giving too much away, Shuster’s “lost years” were marked by organized crime, murder, obscenity and juvenile deliquency. The story is equally as kinky as the illustrations.
