Morty the Dog vol. 2

Another compilation of reprints but the title moved up in the world since vol. 1 when it gained an ISSN.

Published in the spring of 1991, Peter Bagge wrote the intro for this one. He paid me a visit here in McCleary not too long before this was printed, and I can see the experience of stepping into Rural Land left deep emotional scars on his urban soul. Actually, it was pretty funny, and he is always an entertaining speaker and writer. I was honored to have such a prominent cartoonist introduce the comic.

Last summer Peter and I appeared together to talk about politics and comix at the Olympia Comic Fest.
