Vol.26: Not-So-Special "SM" Edition
The latest installment of MEATMEN was a bit of a disappointment. No Zack! No Patrick Fillion! And for the first time since Vol.12, no John Blackburn! Oy. Let's see what's left... Highlights:

"NEWCOMER Part Two" and "MOVE YOUR ASSES" by "STEPAN ZUBINSKI" - The follow-up to the stunner from last time features more submissive "training" in a far future world. The 2nd story involves a new guy on a football team. The art looks rushed on these; I'm not sure if less was put into it, or if the reproduction is just seriously "off". I'm wondering what the original art looked like?

"DADDY'S HOME" by "FARRADAY" - light-hearted romp where fantasy meets "true love". As usual, Farraday's writing far outshines the art.

"HAWK: BACK STAIRS" by GREG GARCIA - The biker returns to the house where he "served" 10 years earlier for a reunion and reminisce about the years in between.

"BAWDY BUCCANEERS" by "MIKE" - Pirates are the subject this time, with far more detail in the art than usual.

"GOLDENLOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS" by GERALD DONELAN - a 4-page variation on the fairy tale, plus 7 more of Donelan's light-hearted cartoons.


This book can be ordered direct from A Different Light Bookstore, or direct from Leyland Publications.

Vol.21: Bathhouse Heat, Camp Antics, etc.
As usual, great & terribly amateurish art is presented side-by-side. Which is which may be a matter of personal taste, but I know what I like, and I keep wishing the excellent will one day outnumber the dreadful.

Highlights this volume: John Blackburn's Coley in "Body Heat", wherein the voodoo bi-boy helps a confused husband come to terms with who he really is; "Visitation Rites" by Sean, where leather-clad bikers meet (and "meat") campground guys; "The Sons Of Ramus" by Joe, a dive into Greek mythology with decent art if not very strong visual storytelling; "Link Up" by Kurt Erichsen, a fun story about a computer nerd with some nice cartoony art; and one-page cartoons by Gerard Donelan. Blackburn gets to shine IN COLOR on both front and back covers this time, and in fact the back is possibly my very favorite single illo of Coley I've seen to date. Can you say... "HHHHHOT"??

Hilarious
This book is a very well composed, and well written book o f the male homosexual in the twentieth century. It actually shows the real in's and and outs of homosexuality today. If your gay, or just curious. This i s a great book to get
