Morandi Simplex

5-star comics correspondence course

A new issue of Terrible Father will be available at Arc London, July 11-12th, along with the previous issues, and the last few copies I have of All the Living.

In the previous issue (which I have yet to post here) I had no letters at all, so, to compensate, this one has FIVE pages of correspondence. And if you have something to ask Terrible Father, send him an email, or leave a comment here. Who knows, maybe it will inspire the next comic, like the one below.

Thanks to everyone who already sent questions and letters, I still have a few to go through, and extra special thanks to brilliant cartoonist Andrés Magán for this great drawing of TF:

And one by Anand, who is also brilliant:

Another story (and a few more bits and bobs, including the exciting backstory to the cover art) from TF5 beyond the paywall. This one is a tribute of sorts to Giorgio Morandi, one of my big inspirations. I could write a lot about him, about repetition and seeing, but I feel like I’ve done enough of that, and anyway, it felt more appropriate to explore it through the act of drawing.
