Blurred Vision: New Narrative Art "Get yer fresh, pipin' hot New Yawk Aht comics here, straight out of the oven.  Get 'em while their hot, we got 'em right here."  Yes, what we have here is a new art gang anthology of comics from the denizens (and their compatriots) of New York City and its environs.  It's cleanly designed and sharply printed.  It's 100 8 1/2" x 11" black and white pages printed on bright white paper, squarebound with a full color cover, and the contributor list reads thusly:  Eve Englezos and Josh Moutry, Toc Fetch, K. Thor Jensen, D. Dominick Lombardi, Matt Madden, Kevin Mutch, Hans Rickheit, Dash Shaw, Bishakh Som, Karl Stevens and Karl Sunshine.  There's a far ranging array of material here, with the brilliant draughtmanship of Toc Fetch's 22-page contribution being the clear standout.  Delve deeper with this online preview.  What's it all about?  Their closing epigraph says it best: "In a factory culture world where everything feels like collaboration, and where there are few particular voices and visions for one to universally identify with, it is good to know there is still one art form -- one universe -- where the individual artist can reign supreme as genius.  Comics are the most under-exploited medium in fine arts, and I have always felt their greatest potential is in the realm of poetry.  Words and pictures can resonate in magical ways, thus creating in their confluence a third way  that inspires the spirit even as it challenges the intellect." -- Michael Teague.
