While he is most widely known as the editor and publisher of Kramers Ergot, Sammy Harkham is a talented cartoonist in his own right, and his most notable achievement, Poor Sailor, which was originally published as the centerpiece of the classic but now out of print Kramers Ergot 4, is also available as a in this stand alone hardcover from Gingko Press.  This elegy to regret is here presented in the single panel per page format that has been gaining some well deserved currency.  This is how it was meant to be read!  And, yes, we still have copies available.  How much longer is anybody's guess...

Well, it's here.  And what is the verdict?  Success!  KE5 is, in every way, a suitable successor to KE4.  We feel quite confident in stating that everyone who enjoyed and/or appreciated KE4 will get at least as much out of KE5.  Not only that, we'll go a step further and proclaim that many of those readers who were intrigued by KE4, but found it a bit "too out there" for their tastes, have an excellent chance of finding that KE5 -- with its addition of stand-out work by Gabrielle Bell, Kevin Huizenga, Chris Ware, and Dan Zettwoch -- has much to offer them, and represents a broader spectrum of comics than its predecessor.  In addition, any fans of autobiographical comics may find that they have finally met their match in David Heatley's massive/micro magnum opus.
