I’m pretty sure I mentioned this before, but Sergio Aragones will have his own monthly title through Matt Groenings’s Bongo comics. Entitled Sergio Aragones Funnies, the first edition hits stores next week on the 20th and on newsstands on August 9th.
From the press release:
Mr Aragon’es became a regular featured artist and writer in Bart Simpson comics beginning with issue #50. His ongoing strip “Maggie’s Crib” appears every month, and he has contributed to various Bongo titles over the past two years. Now, Sergio Aragon’es will provide the entire contents of his own monthly title, featuring the pantomime gags he is most known for along with autobiographical stories based on a lifetime of adventures, including his first paying job as a cartoonist at the age of nine and his on set antics as an extra in the film production of Daniel Boone. Sergio has traveled all over the world and has met many historical figures, all of which will provide issue upon issue of warmly told, incredibly funny tales. Every issue includes mind-boggling puzzles and games concocted by the one of the most detail-oriented artists in the history of comics.
Looking forward to this.
I got it on last Wednesday at my local shop, and yes, anyone who likes Sergio’s work will love it.
