GMN #2 PREVIEW

-Cloak of The Moon: Featuring Story & Art by Alex Witts & Raighne Hogan


-The BACK COVER + logo - words I know you can't really see what it is in the actual book so I thought I would put it up here for anyone who was curious.






-Yard Work: by Meghan Hogan



-Too Much Time On Land: by Meghan Hogan



-2 untitled comics: by Joe Nixon & Luke Holden, respectively. A correction for episode # 2. Regarding Joe Nixon's story, a few years ago Joe related the story to Meghan. Meghan, being Meghan found it amusing and jotted it down. I (raighne here) put it together with Joe's art.



-The aptly titled, THE RIPOFF: Art & Story by Nic Breutzman & John Holden -Back Pages: by Ed Moorman (his is the first story in the compendium, amazing stuff!)

Holden Brothers in GMN #2

Animation by Luke Holden | Music by Sunsblood

We were lucky enough to get stories by the brothers Luke & John Holden in GOOD MINNESOTAN Episode 2. The pair does make the DETRIMENTAL INFORMATION mini-comics together, but that's hardly the tip of the 'berg. In addition to writing, John performs spoken word and is an avid video blogger. Luke does not only illustration and lettering, but he plays drums in a band and creates animations, paintings, and tattoo designs. Look for them in the next episode of GOOD MINNESOTAN (release date May 16, 2008 at ART-A-WHIRL)!

Web Links:
> Total Vom Show website: Luke & John's website which includes their animations, video blogs, albums and mini-comics.

> In November 2007, John was interviewed by Curtis Gilbert for the Minnesota Public Radio story: Video blogger learns YouTube stardom has a price.

GMN #2 dropping NEXT MONTH!

Hello friends. I just spend yesterday stabbing myself in the eyes working in front of the computer all day. Braighne not understand..... BRAIGHNE SMASH! Okay, so the cover and back cover are mostly done, as is the interior.

Throughout the next couple weeks leading up to the release (during Art-a-Whirl here in MPLS) we will try and post a preview/snapshot(s?) of the 2nd Episode of Good Minnesotan. It is roughly 3-times the size of the first issue.

I will also try and post some vids' of one of our contributers and long time friends, Joe Nixon, assisting us in some wall building for studio/gallery. Joe is one talented and, funny, tough dude! His forearms are the size of my thighs!!
