An Alphabetical Ballad of Carnality: A BLAB! Storybook

Blab!

by David Sandlin

by David Sandlin
This ABC for sinners spotlights creator David Sandlin's alter ego, recounting his lurid life in rhyming a "sintamental education" in 26 easy steps, from "Adultery" to "Zealotry." Sandlin's storybook can best be described as narrative painting, taking advantage of the way in which art allows the artist to bring together the conscious and the subconscious, the rational and the irrational, and the realistic and the dreamlike.

[Kellee · Rating 4 out of 5]

A utterly bizzare and artfully awesome graphic novel.

What perverso-juvenile/stereo-erotic procurative process does "Balustrade of Blabulon" use to enlist the creators?

I've enjoyed, in a primitive sense, my first four tastes of "The Beauchef Montebank's" snazzy-spined, square-shaped series of picto-repugnant, swine-eyed eubaloo-stew.
