September 2026 - 84 FULL-COLOR pages (now bi-monthly!)

"Gentleman Gene" is showcased in our Gene Colan: Without A Net headlining feature in CBC #45, featuring the participation of Tom Field as we include a wonderful 75th birthday celebration of the artist at San Diego Comic-Con back in 2001, featuring some special guests. So you think you know the craziest lunatic in comics history? Think again, as we, with the help of onetime employee Mark Wheatley, spotlight gunslinging Myron Fass and his nutty Heavy Metal rip-off, Gasm! There’s also an account of editor Jon B. Cooke's visit to the ambitious (albeit shortlived) Florida-based comics publisher, all-in-one Crossgen, then at the crossroads and facing collapse. The amazingly eclectic and diverse career of Good Girls cartoonist Carol Lay is examined, where she discusses jumping between underground, alternative, and mainstream comics, and current work as graphic novelist. Plus there’s part two of our Jack Katz interview, Joe Hill part deux, as well as Shaun Clancy’s brief though absolutely fascinating look at Hillman Periodicals, publisher of Airboy. (And, as always, Hembeck is in the house!)

This item is listed in the April 2026 issue of Lunar’s Next Phase catalog (#52).
