Now, Endsville and Other Stories

Carol Lay’s Now, Endsville and Other Stories is a single-issue collection from Kitchen Sink Press, first published in 1993, that gathers her offbeat, character-driven tales. Lay, serving as both writer and artist, brings her signature deadpan humor and clean cartooning to a series of short pieces, making this a concise but essential snapshot of her independent-comics voice. It matters as a showcase of Lay’s distinctive storytelling, offering a self-contained entry point into her long-running, slyly surreal world.
