Spit and Half's first book length publication, in at last collecting the complete run of Strange Growths, the legendary 1990s self-published comics zine by Jenny Zervakis, realizes one of John Porcellino's long cherished goals. It's all here – and more. In addition to collecting all thirteen issues of Strange Growths, this 240 page softcover volume includes additional work that originally appeared in comics anthologies, an interview with small press comics critc and scholar, Rob Clough, an introduction by Porcellino and... an index!
Tom Hart sez, "Strange Growths was the first comic to demonstrate that comics needn't be about character and actions, but can be about thought and mood. Somehow, these comics created their own world. Somehow, Strange Growths was a place, above all – a place to contemplate and to reflect and to be."
