Flint Comix & Entertainment #18

Lio’s latest scheme involves hosting a book signing for Pinocchio—featuring the actual Monstro, the giant whale—while navigating his usual chaos: cranky neighbors, misbehaving pets, and the ever-present oddity of his own life. It’s a delightfully absurd slice of suburban surrealism, where the line between storybook and street corner blurs.

In "One Day At The Local Coffee House...", a grumbling Cynicalman navigates a surreal morning where a girl named Jo strikes up an odd conversation, a street artist attempts to impress a crowd of grinning balloons, a designer lands a job by thinking literally inside the box, and Lizard Girl shares her surprisingly logical reasons for favoring Burger Kaiser. Written by an unnamed author and illustrated by an unnamed artist, the story captures a delightfully offbeat slice of life with a wink and a smirk.

In this delightfully absurd entry from Flint Comix & Entertainment #18, Jo finds herself navigating a world where history took a sharp left turn—Superman’s eye exam becomes a surreal obstacle course through brick and lead, Mr. T’s to-do list includes items that defy logic, and Jesus’s forgotten miracle walk is just one of many bizarre footnotes in a timeline gone sideways. With talking animals, sports injuries, and a whole lot of "what if?" energy, the story unfolds in a single, perfectly strange 1.25 pages.

In "The Unseen," a scientist at Great Lakes University accidentally renders himself invisible during a lab experiment and is shot by a panicked security guard. Found unconscious on the street, he’s taken in by Rae, who offers him shelter and help—though neither of them knows how long he can stay hidden, or what the cost of invisibility might truly be.

In "As Alania's Palace Is Captured By Ming's Forces...", Flash and King Barin narrowly escape the fall of Alania just before Ming’s army arrives, having disabled the city’s force fields. With the palace under siege, the two strike back, destroying both the invading forces and the city itself before Flash retreats to Arboria to regroup.

In "Deathmask Part 3," James ventures to Crete chasing whispers of the Minotaur, where he meets agent Suzi Kew. Together, they dive into a hidden cave only to uncover a mechanical beast—and a trap set by a shadowy enemy spy.
