Clark Dissmeyer Bibliography 1980-1993 / compiled by Gary Usher and Marc Myers














This was originally published in early 1994 by Gary Usher in Glenwood, Iowa on letter-size sheets. I reprinted it later in the year as one of the print-on-demand titles available in my catalog.

Publishing this was a triple pleasure for me. I got to promote the efforts of a great comix scholar, highlight the work of one of the funniest cartoonists out of the Newave, and actually get Marc Myers in print (which is sort of like getting a good photo of Sasquatch).

Now there's a project where only the bravest bibliographer dare tread-- building an accurate and complete bibliography of the work of Marc Myers. In many ways Marc's work is the very essence of Obscuro and I greatly admire that. And Marc was really the only cartoonist who could've helped Gary build such a complete bibliography of Clark's art.

  1. I had the pleasure of having BOTH Clark Dissmeyer and Marc Myers contribute art my original Major Mishap series in '80-'81. Blue Moon Productions owes both artists a debt and welcomes more art in the future.

  2. Thanks Jerry. Hopefully we'll have a chance to see more work from Marc and Clark in the future. Two great artists from America's heartland.
