For all the Beto heads: a really great deep dive into his work from The Comics Journal: https://ow.ly/7IYB50XqHsq!

was not expecting to learn that Oglaf the Barbarian influenced by Footrot Flats today but ... okay is it weird that I see it now www.tcj.com/talking-oglaf-with-trudy-cooper-and-doug-bayne-wed-stay-up-all-night-drawing-stuff-to-make-each-other-laugh

ive literally never considered the fact that like. human people write oglaf.

great article, the solitary gourmet is a really good manga, i really recommend it, and Taniguchi's works in general, to anyone interested in knowing what adult manga is like

An interview of the creators of the awesome NSFW Oglaf comic! 🤩 www.oglaf.com Cc @conscritneuneu.bsky.social

in 17 years of reading Oglaf this is the first time I've ever seen anything about its creators. wonderful

ATTN GLUTTONS: Please savor this mouth-watering review of The Solitary Gourmet, a comic about eating in the age of loneliness (1994-present) by Jirō Taniguchi & Masayuki Kusumi, up today at TCJ (The Chowbell Jouissance)

Okay, that was weird. I just found myself thinking about the great webcomic Oglaf, so I did a random Google search … and lo’ and behold, The Comics Journal published an interview with the creators only a day ago. Quite the coincidence. …Great (smutty) comic, though… www.tcj.com/talking-ogla...

Great to see a book like this finally getting licensed. ...Now can we please get a full translation for Oishinbo too?

Oh, the long-teased release of Jiro Taniguchi's Solitary Gourmet is finally out!

Talking Oglaf with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne: ‘We’d stay up all night drawing stuff to make each other laugh’ by Jason Bergman www.tcj.com/talking-ogla...

Oglaf is one of the few webcomics I still follow. It's terrific work.

oglaf is a must read every sunday, wards away the scaries and turns it into the hornies

Its so nice to see so many people excited to learn, well...anything about these two. Oglaf is an institution! Trudy and Doug deserve all the love.

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF! Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!

Oh fun, it's an interview with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne, the artists behind the long long-running, extremely NSFW & hilarious comic Oglaf. They rarely ever do public talks, so this is rare. I always like recommending Oglaf, but it's a bit difficult since it's NSFW. But it's so original & funny.

My latest at @comicsjournal.bsky.social: I talked to @oglaf.bsky.social! Not the character, but rather, the people who create it. They don't do many interviews, so this was a real treat. They're funny people! Turns out they're not super private, just...really bad at PR? www.tcj.com/talking-ogla...

Hmm, I wonder what's going on over at @comicsjournal.bsky.social? Why, it's a review of Japanese ero-guro master/all-around creepazoid Shintaro Kago's latest award-winning manga horror collection, BRAIN DAMAGE! Written by me, a reviewer of comics! Pop on over and have a look.

One thing I can guarantee about Shintaro Kago--there will always be at LEAST one story that is just too much for you...

Much Ado About the Mitfords: A Talk with Mimi Pond by Tammi Morton-Kelly www.tcj.com/much-ado-abo...

Mariko Tamaki is great! It was so fun to get to have this conversation with her, she’s the coolest! www.tcj.com/mariko-tamak...

One thing doing interviews for The Comics Journal with older artists has taught me, it's that if you like someone's work, it's important you TELL them. It's true for any medium, but especially in comics, the motivation isn't financial. When they stop hearing from fans, it's hard to keep going.

This was a great read: www.tcj.com/mariko-tamak... @comicsjournal.bsky.social @ginagagliano.bsky.social @nicolegoux.bsky.social
