It's Alive!

 

RELUCTANT SADIST #8 has gone out into the world and is finding it's way onto a podcast and mentions on various blogs and websites. Here's the latest roundup!

Tony Osmond on "The Awesome Comics Podcast" reviewed it on episode #453 (This Podcast is Going Silent!) and was generous with his enthusiasm. Check it out for yourself; the review starts at the (01:38:40) mark. The ACP guys also were kind enough to list RS#8 on the Recommends page of the podcast's website.

Gary Usher over at the fine Comics, Comix and Zine News Blog, "Trigger Warnings" posted a notice about RS#8's release back in February - New Alternative and Small Press Comix Arrivals (February Week 4)

Rick Bradford over at the mighty Poopsheet Foundation, a massive comic zine database archive, added RS#8, so now has a complete RS collection!

And last, but not least, the indefatigable Thomas Campbell of The Comics Blogger, posted about RS#8 on his Instagram account to announce "Now in Stock!". Thomas is my USA distributor, so check out his store (cheaper postage if you're in the US then I can do).

If you are a creative person making a thing, keep sending out review copies or links to anyone and everyone you can, and don't forget to share, comment and like what other folks are doing. That's the best way we can build some community.

Keep smiling,

OK HW

Distributed Here, There and Everywhere

RS has a new distributor! This one is in North Carolina in the good old US of A, The Comics Blogger, a review blog, zine and shop run by Thomas Campbell. Here’s the link,

It’s super handy to have a US distro point as the postage will be much less for US folks, then me shipping it all the way from Latvia. Also, Thomas has been tabling at shows, so I’m hoping he sometimes will include RS in the mix.

This distro is in addition to the ones I have here in Riga, Latvia (Bolderaja Art Bar and Down Street Records and Athens, Greece (Jemma Comics – RS#8). I’m always open to new options, so any and all suggestions appreciated!

It’s no point letting those extra copies gather dust in a box! It’s important to get them out there into the world and I appreciate the people and shops that have support my comix by stocking them.
