::: ZINES ZINES ZINES
This last months Montreal Comix Jam was not only the launch for yet another issue (41) of the Monthly Comix Magazine MensuHell, but also the latest Monthly Montreal Comix Jam Quarterly.
Things hit a bit of a hiccup when it was discovered at the ninth hour that the studio on 10 Ontario was lost to us, but many of the regulars and some of the summer crowd unaware of the predicament caught up with Sandra and me at the Casa del Popolo. Francis made it as well and books were handed out to everyone (in both zines cases all participants get a copy for free).
I ‘d like to take a moment here to mention that the work done at the Casa that night was INCREADABLE!
Wow.
Kudos to everyone, thanks for such a fun and inspiring night of doodling. You can watch the front page for some of the sweet pages from this jam, up already is a very fine two part jam, go see! (I don’t think the pages were intended as such but they dovetail together so nicely I decided to marry them officially, they plan to have kids.)
This months MensuHell Is Jam packed comic goodness.

the Monthly Montreal Comix Jam Quarterly Vol2

The latest Monthly Montreal Comix Jam Quarterly (what a mouth full) is bursting with one of the sweetest and most consistent selection of pages seen in a jam zine. The studious atmosphere of the last three gatherings resulted in slightly fewer pages (51 vs. 60+) but numbers are more than made up for buy the high average common denominator. Some samples of the work in this edition include the following pages featured on the front page as Jam’s of the week.
pages by [1] Tim Moreman [2] Marr, Tim Moreman, & Jimmy Beaulieu [3] (Andrée Tardif aka Sabine Allaire [4] Pete, Rilly, Sully & Salgood.
