Unknown Comic Fan
Back in the days before the Internet, people used to trade small page count comics all the time via the regular mail. Larned Justin is trying to revive that tradition with his 3 Page Follies comics. The idea being to produce a small number of very short page count comics among the small press community that can then be traded for other small page count comics. The key difference is that Larned is willing to keep a list of people who are willing to take part in this and trade freely. In this manner, small press publishers who do not want to take part in trading their publications can be avoided while those that do could be put on the list to send and receive trades. Any small press publisher interested in being part of the 3 Page Follies trading project should contact Larned Justin at the address below for details.

Invasion of the Space Amazons from the Purple Planet #1By; Dale Martin Price: $2.25
A blast from the past. This 3 issue comics series debuted in 1997, is printed on news print with ink that comes off on your hands when you read it. It reads like a cartoonish, Lesbian, Feminist, Environmentalist, Vegan, sci-fi fantasy. The story is actually handled in a semi serious fashion. Various back up items like the short, humorous "Radical Feminist For Hire" and A reasonably detailed history of space amazons and their home world grace this issue. In this issue, the Space Amazons send a small detachment to earth to find out what happened to their first interstellar explorer. You’ll need to check out the samples to get an accurate idea of how this comic reads. After you do that, if find you want to order copies for yourself, feel free to contact Dale at the address below, or visit his website for more of his comics.

Invasion of the Space Amazons from the Purple Planet #2By; Dale Martin Price: $2.25
For an introduction to this miniseries, read the synopsis for issue number one posted above. In this issue, the two space amazons arrive in earth orbit, but one of them is on a secret mission to eradicate all the men on earth to end what they deem as oppression of women, and to correct the earth’s pollution problems. The oppression is never really articulated, but rather just assumed. Never the less, one of the amazons is extremely committed to the cause of male eradication and places a series of devices on earth’s surface called a gender bomb. To activate this genetic weapon all the devices must be strategically placed and activated simultaneously. This issue also has a few back ups like Radical Feminist for Hire and Oimar’s Story. Check out the samples by clicking the thumbnail cover image.
