Graphic Story Monthly

A short-lived but distinctive Fantagraphics anthology from 1990, Graphic Story Monthly ran for seven issues, showcasing a mix of quirky humor and noir-tinged adventure. The series is most associated with writers and artists like Douglas Michael, Craig Maynard, and Joe Matt, whose work anchored the book alongside contributions from Disney legend Ward Kimball. Featuring recurring characters such as the hapless Gomer Goof and the hard-boiled detective Nestor Burma, it stands as a curious, offbeat snapshot of early-'90s alternative comics.
