Everything! by Lynda Barry


We weren't actually going to announce anything today because it is Thanksgiving after all but my general sour mood exacerbated by lazy and oddly exclusionary year-end lists and unfathomable comics press coverage caused my wisecracks to reach a fever pitch and it seems they were taken at face value by Tom Spurgeon at Comics Reporter so I might as well roll this out.

Next fall will actually see the publication of the first volume of the complete Lynda Barry comics work (consisting primarily of her Ernie Pook's Comeek strip but not limited to just that, oh no!) Things to look forward to are her college strip, "Spinal Comics" (edited by none other than long time pal Matt Groening for the Evergreen State newspaper) and the precursor to Ernie Pook, "Two Sisters". Eventually there will be many other rare or rarely seen tidbits like Lynda's Esquire strips. We're not completely sure how many volumes there will be but we figure somewhere around ten.

Lynda! Barry! Everything! Finally!

Now if you'll excuse me I have some indignant tweeting to attend to.
