Seven inch stories

Seven Inch Stories, launched by Independent Communications in 1999, is a single-issue anthology comic that squeezes a handful of tight, self-contained narratives into its pages. Though brief in its run, the series showcases the publisher's early commitment to compact, creator-driven storytelling, with each tale standing alone like a short record on a 7-inch vinyl. It’s a curious artifact of late-1990s indie comics, valued for its snapshot of emerging talent working in a constrained, punchy format.
