stories are beautiful and brutal, bizarre and brazen, all told

the Unknown), James Jean (Process: Recess,
Fables), Tomer Hanuka (Bipolar), Thomas
Herpich (Cusp, Gongwanadon), Brandon
Graham (Escalator, King City) and Dash
Shaw (The Bottomless Belly
Button). Now a new gang of young creators have joined the Meathaus
to form the largest group of awesome dudes who like to rock yet.
