MensuHell was published for 109 issues, which is an exploit for a fanzine. MensuHell was started by Steve Requin, who then gave it to Francis Hervieux, who published it for most of the run. But now it’s time to say good-bye, so I drew the cover for the final issue. Karl made the text and the chicken logo. An hommage to Sgt. Pepper’s funeral group shot, all the characters have either appeared in MensuHell, are friends of the fanzine or influences in Quebec. You can order a copy here. I haven’t spent working so many hours on one single drawing for a long while. x_X It was difficult to integrate all those different styles, colors and especialy the difference in proportions for each characters. But the final result was worth it.

Francis the editor will be selling this final issue during the “30 seconds before xmas” event at the Usine 160U art gallerie @ 160 Roy E. From noon to 7PM, Dec. 20 + 21th. I won’t have a table there, but I’ll probably visit on Saturday.

I also made a Who’s Who. I guess it’ll be useless if you’re not from Quebec (though some people might know Rabagliati’s Paul or Boivin’s Mélody).
