With dozens of supporting characters, hundreds of bit part players, and
             thousands of superfluous no-line extras

Met z'n 80 pagina's en 80x8x6=ff rekenen=3840 panels is het zeer
waarschijnlijk de dikste minicomic ooit gemaakt. Hoe dit meesterwerkje
tot stand kwam wordt uitgelegd in... 

The Making of Longshot Comics

Taking figure art to new heights, each and every character in _Longshot
Comics_ was drawn to exacting standards in the fine tradition of
Victorian-era periodical illustrations. They were then meticulously
reduced a dozen times with modern photocopy technology, until the
artwork fit into minicomic page proportions. The calligraphy was
carefully scripted by Italian monks on 12x8 canvas frames, and likewise
reduced until it skirted legibility. The actual story and script were
churned out by some hack for scale pay.

Nieuwsgierig? Stuur *niet* $1 naar die SubGenius, maar $2 naar Shane
Simmons, 733 43rd Avenue, Lachine, Quebec, Canada, H8T 2J5 (voor de 1e
druk, minicomic), of $2.95 + een beetje, naar Slave Labor Graphics, 9797
S. Bascom Ave., San Jose, CA 95128, USA (voor de tweede druk, regular
size comic). Voor meer info, email: danslave@aol.com.

Zo, da's wel weer genoeg reclame. :)
                                    

Proost,
Arthur.
