Read Slinky Comix #1!

Following up on the established format of Slinky Comix #0, I am proud to release Slinky Comix #1!

The first offical issue of Slinky Comix presents all new stories featuring your favorite cartoon lizard! Some of these stories are years in the making, so it is exciting to present them in this finished collection.

The first story, “Slinky Rides the Inspiration Pony” began as a minicomic created for the San Francisco Zinefest Zine Marathon in 2016.

The marathon brought together local zine makers to create their own zine in under an hour, with the original zines being raffled off at the SF Zinefest. I showed up to the marathon with an idea in mind, but that was quickly discarded as I overheard fellow zinester Breena Nunez say, “It’s time to ride the inspiration pony” as the event was beginning. Running with this phrase instead, I penciled out the story that would become “Slinky Rides the Inspiration Pony”, coloring in my rainbow cover just as my hour was up.

This story is followed up by “Slinky and the Revolution”, as Slinky joins forces with other protesters in combating the powers that be.

In “Make a Wish”, a star shoots across the night sky as a variety of characters each reveal their deepest desire. Readers can then join Slinky in the short comic “Slinky Wizard” as he casts a spell with unexpected results.

In “Balloon”, Slinky goes world wide as he drifts across a variety of international locales. And finally, join Slinky in his final adventure of the issue “Slinky Goes to Hell” as he mistakenly takes a bus to a depraved inferno.
