Released December 2016
Gumballs #1
Synopsis
Pop in your quarters and see what pops out of GUMBALLS-a brand-new, one-man anthology comic from Portland cartoonist Erin Nations! His bright, candy-colored palette and crisp linework pop off the page, while his stories reflect a fascination with humanity in all its diverse foibles - hinting at one of his earliest creative influences, Matt Groening. In Gumballs #1, Erin serves up a delicious variety of stories: recollections of growing up as a triplet, interactions with oddball grocery-store customers, the adventures of clueless dork Tobias, painfully funny faux Personal Ads, and 'Tales of Being Trans'-reflections on Erin's true-life journey of gender transition. Gumballs tips its hat to the classic alt-comic tradition of Eightball, Optic Nerve, and Box Office Poison, but speaks with a delightfully fresh voice for the modern age.
