King-Cat Comics

John Porcellino’s King-Cat Comics, published by Reprodukt, is a deeply personal and influential mini-comic series that began in 1998 and continues to the present day. Known for its minimalist, heartfelt storytelling, the series captures quiet moments of everyday life, nature, and introspection, with Porcellino’s distinctive linework and sparse, poetic prose defining its enduring voice. A cornerstone of the modern autobiographical comics movement, King-Cat matters for its raw intimacy and its proof that a single creator’s small, honest observations can resonate for decades.
