By Paul Hornschemeier. An abusive cowboy to a literate dinosaur to a heartbroken teenager to a has-been TV character running from cancellation...an endless stream of segues from one seemingly un-segue-able narrative to the next -- this is Forlorn Funnies. Moving from his formal experimentation-laden, sharply-designed and critically-acclaimed series, Sequential, Paul Hornschemeier begins this full-color, quarterly series without reserve: seven distinct and separate narratives flow into and out of one another seamlessly, creating the sensation of an anthology written by Siamese quintuplets! 32 pages, full color. Mature Readers. Cover price $3.95.

By Paul Hornschemeier. A small bodied, large-nosed man drifts through the ether, making mental memos to someone we never see. A lover? A sister? It is impossible to tell if he is dead, or if she is, or both. This dream-like scene begins the challenging and emotional second issue of Forlorn Funnies. The book then segues to the first chapter of "Mother, Come Home," the quiet, subtly surreal story of two men, a father and son, and the desperate fantasy worlds they create in an effort to cope with the death of the family's mother. 32 pages, full color. Mature Readers. Cover price $5.95.

By Paul Hornschemeier. Actually two books in one, with two covers, and polarized contents. Half of the book is forlorn, the other half is funny, about the tragic misfortunes of a narcoleptic, dyslexic man and the jealousy he tires to communicate, poorly. Confusing and beautiful in an immaculate package. Nominated for two Eisner Awards and one Harvey Award. 6.5-in. x 7.5-in., 80 pages, PC/PB&W. Mature Readers.
