BARK BARK GIRL is back in print! The 2nd edition of my graphic novel is out now, published a second time by the mighty PEOW! The cover is slightly different now.
«Sweary young-adult Jolanda struggles with herself, school and her dog’s off leash training. A math test is destined to change her entire life, she is destined to repeat a grade. Unless maybe, her dog…? If she’d have a couple more days, maybe this time she would study really, really, really hard? Probably.»

Five years ago, when I was a lonely teenager with a punk fixation, I started writing a comic called Adventures Close to Home. It was an outlet for all my teen angst and a patchwork of my biggest influences at the time, intended to be an early testing ground for my growing interest in comics. I wrote about Al and Carl, two aimless 22 year-olds re-evaluating life with high school in the rear view. And then a weird thing happened: I kept writing more episodes, and slowly I started catching up to the characters in age. Today, Al and Carl are no longer twisted models of adulthood, but my peers, and I feel even closer to them as a result. I feel like we grew up together.
Today, I’m ending this chapter in the lives of both Al and Carl and myself. This will be the last Adventures Close to Home for the foreseeable future. It’s possible I’ll pick the story up again in time (I still have plenty of ideas), but it felt right to end it now. I’ve had this conclusion in mind for years, and it was time to put it to paper. As it stands, I’ve written 12 chapters and 73 pages of ACTH. They vary in quality, but I’m proud of them. I’m exploring the possibility of printing or publishing the series (under the title “Adventures Close to Home: Hold My Hair, I Think I’m Gonna Puke”), but for now you can read all of them on my website at https://www.vomitparty.com/adventuresclosetohome.
Thank you to anyone who has ever read a page of this comic, whether you were following along or reading casually on social media. I hope this story connects with you and provides a couple of laughs.
The image below is the first time I ever drew Al and Carl, circa 2018. I’ve grown a lot as a person and an artist since then, and I’m still growing up. I like to think this story is a reminder that we all are.

Alternative comics and literary graphic novels chart
This chart is a selection from my list of 200 alternative, art, and experimental comic books, as well as graphic novels with a literary bent. I arranged the chart in reverse order of publication to highlight the more recent titles; I also excluded some of the obvious big-name classics to make it somewhat more interesting than your standard "comic books aren't just for kids starter pack".

"...A DIFFERENT TYPE OF LONELY, NAIVE, URBAN MISFIT-GIRL ..."
NOTE: ^I skew more towards indie-vintage-boho type girls, personally (definitely indie), but an "urban misfit-girl" sounds perfectly fine with me.
PIC INFO: Spotlight on a panel of the ideal girl for me, personally, from the graphic novel "David Boring," originally serialized in the American indie comics anthology "Eightball," conceived, written, & illustrated by Daniel Clowes, published by Pantheon Books in 2000.
""A different type of lonely, naïve urban misfit-girl’. I knew this girl! I knew many of her English, 1990s counterparts. This was real to me. And "they saved" his life! Who knew we were that significant? We sure weren’t feeling appreciated at the time. But I digress. Here’s a sentiment we hear repeated over and over in Clowes’s fiction. The women save, rescue and redeem the men. And just the idea of them will do it!"
-- COMICS WORK BOOK, "On Being a Woman in the Manly World of Daniel Clowes," posted on November 14, 2016 by "Mardou"

... but a lot less fun, though. You hit the targets but get no plush.
