Newave Comics Survey, Book 4 / by Dale Luciano












I reprinted Dale Luciano's landmark Newave Comics Survey as one of my print-on-demand titles 1994-1996.

The Survey was reprinted into a set of four digest sized books. This particular segment was originally serialized in Comics Journal 100 (July 1985) to 102 and includes profiles on: Scott Stevens, Robert Stump, Alex Tamsula, Dan W. Taylor, Dave Taylor, Tracy Thore, Mike Turville, Valentino, Eric Vincent, Bob Vojtko, Jim Waltman, Ray Weiland, Byron Werner, Gary Whitney, Kurt Wilcken, J.R. Williams, Steve Willis, Dennis Worden, XEX Graphics, Joe Zabel, Ray Zone.

Outside In # 14






1st edition, 1984, 200 copies on white cardstock.

2nd edition, 1984. Seattle, Washington : Starhead Comix, regular stock white paper.

Mike Honeycutt, Jane Oliver, Kathryn Pritz, Meher Dada, Jane Weir, James Dean Pruner, Randy Maxson.

A particularly unsettling issue, or maybe that's my feeling in hindsight since Pruner died in 1988, and Oliver in 1992. Very strong self-portraits in every case here.

This was the final issue of Outside In I edited before handing it off to Michael Dowers. A brief history of the series will be forthcoming.
