Preview:

mini kuš! #51 'Mirror Stage' by Jaakko Pallasvuo

“Who’s in the middle when the two sides of your face are side by side, as they are, in the mirror.” ― Mirkka Rekola

Format: A6, 28 pages, saddle stitch binding, full-color, English

mini kuš! #52 'Acquisition' by Cátia Serrão

Starting with the anodyne question “What does the duck say?” Acquisition stages a proof test conducted by an absent master and a semi-present assistant to a candidate in the best tradition of clownish pixelated Kabbalah.

Format: A6, 28 pages, saddle stitch binding, full-color, English

Support: Funded by the Direção-Geral do Livro, dos Arquivos e das Bibliotecas/Portugal.

mini kuš! #53 'Yellow' by Līva Kandevica

What would you do if you knew that this reality that you experience does not even exist? This is a yellowish nightmare where the protagonist is trapped in his own imagination. It seems like a never-ending suffering, but maybe it’s not even happening?

Format: A6, 28 pages, saddle stitch binding, full-color, English

mini kuš! #54 'Bad Ball' by Samplerman

What if an old discarded comic book was suddenly bitten by a radioactive, genetically modified spider? Would the cover drawing, or those inside the book, start behaving strangely? Would the dialogue slowly grow s(tu)pider and s(tu)pider? Would the paper start to melt? Would the story devolve to the point of meaninglessness? None of these questions will be answered in this minicomic.

Format: A6, 28 pages, saddle stitch binding, full-color, English

Bye-buy!
