According to Lally this zine contains "strips about The Radio, The Political System and Satellite Erection. It’s a bit serious actually.." and as one of the dynamic duo of the UK Alternative Press I take his word on it.
Lovely print quality.
If you are unfamiliar with Lally's work can check it out at his blog. It is not slick, high-pro artwork and I don't think anyone claims that. This is someone whose art HAS improved ("Our Thing" page he draws Parliament quite well -something I've always tried to avoid, and I don't mean drawing well!). It's a zine by someone who has something to say and has decided to use words and pictures to do so. There is some nice dry humour.
The Small Press covers every subject without tipping its collective hat to mainstream comics, as it should be because I don't think this Lally offering would work "drawn the Marvel way"!!
Bite the bullet: buy a small press comic. Make Peter Lally rich! In all seriousness, a zine worth checking out.
