Since the mid-1980s Dillon Naylor has been drawing distinctively sinister album covers, band posters, t-shirt designs and comics out of pure love... and a name on the door of the next gig. Now, for the first time, artwork that was only ever found staple-gunned to a pole in Fitzroy, duct-taped to a wall in a smoky pub or stuffed upside-down into a magazine rack in an alternative music store can now be seen all in one smart 200 page volume, A Brush With Darkness! The collection includes long out-of-print comic books for Melbourne cult bands The Fireballs, The Fat Thing, and Satellite as well as posters and CD covers for Area 7, Powderfinger plus the big-scale all-age Pushover gigs of the 90s. The book also includes nearly all of Dillon's early horror comics and experimental, never-before published pieces all scanned from the original, moth-eaten elements and presented in brain-snapping black and white! A scare-larious cartoon snapshot of the music and underground comic scene of the last three decades complete with the artist's notes and unreliable recollections.

A beautifully decaying, 120 page giant-sized collection of Scarlette Baccini's humourous (and sometimes horrendous) comic strips and stories featuring a zombie and her best friend/roommate/hamster, Cameron as they take on vegetarians, dating, Tarantino, walruses and more.

Before the sweeping saga of 'The Sacrifice', or his arty 'The Silence': Aussie comic master Bruce Mutard began his comic art career in the slime, evolving slowly through the lizard and ape phases to become the 'artiste' he is today. Stripshow showcases these early underground 'comix' phases where nothing was sacred, and humour was the order of the day. This collection of short strips, gags, illustrations and ads are either unpublished, or long, long, out of print in their original publications. Stripshow comes with extensive notes and commentary from the author. Recommended for mature readers.
