Umm, I thought I already brought the shit. No?
Jesse Moynihan is bringing the shit.
Jesse was a Philadelphia cartoonist for quite a while. Now I think he’s living in LA. I am sure he has a perfectly good reason for moving to the wrong coast, but I can never really support anyone heading in that direction. Go East, young man, I say.
He’s making some awesome comics out there, despite the Wrong Coastishness. I’ve stolen a bit from page 16 of a comic that’s already up to 75 pages (all the links in this post, tho, go to the first page of the comic). I’ve only made it to page 33, but I’ve only been reading it since last night and this morning.
Jesse’s really made something here. It’s a story comic, so you do need to start at the beginning. It’s a very, very layered story based on all kinds of crazy mythology and wrapped in a crazy sense of color and humor. 100% worth your time.The main reason to love “Forming,” is because every time it starts to get all deep and mystical, some character will say something like “Who’s your daddy?” or curse in some really outlandish way.The humor is a bit crass, but I’m a four year old boy, so I like that.
In my humble opinion, you should start digging on “Forming” right now before I bring the shit.
Note from 2020: Two books are out from this storyline now and the first one blew everyone’s mind.
