Mark Martin is probably best known for his hilarious "Nude Dancer" single-pagers, and the anthology comic he shared with Jim Woodring, "Tantalizing Stories." Since then, he's contributed comics to anthologies from Dark Horse, Fantagraphics, Disney Adventures, Nickelodeon, and more. Martin is now back with a vengeance with his own solo, semi-annual "Runaway Comics." The longest story stars his popular character Montgomery Wart (from "Tantalizing Stories"), and several shorter stories round out the first issue. Full of Martin's patented visuals (at once dazzling and animated), slapstick humor, perfect timing, distinctive character designs, and rambunctious storytelling. Find out why so many cartoonists, from Scott McCloud to Jim Woodring, love Martin's comics.
