Now You're Logging

Bus Griffiths’ Now You’re Logging is a single-issue comic from Harbour Publishing, first released in 1978 and still in print, that offers a detailed, affectionate look at the craft and culture of West Coast logging. Written and drawn entirely by Griffiths, a logger-turned-cartoonist, it combines instructional diagrams with humorous anecdotes to document a working world rarely captured in comics. Its enduring relevance lies in its role as a practical, folk-history artifact—a comic that doubles as a manual, preserving the language, tools, and traditions of an industry with warmth and precision.
