Dude has had a few comics published, all super dense and chaotic and worth checking out. One of those:

And everyone loves Lightning Bolt, OF COURSE.

  I have this comic. It’s printed on Japanese newspaper, like 10-30 panels on every 3×5″ page, back and front, most everything is drawn in the negative space. He must used hundreds of pens to do this.

“Black Pus” was the name of my band in college. I’m asserting prior art. Or something.

The dude is such a badass drummer! Holy hell! And this flip-book vid of his junior high drawings is adorable. Swoon.
