New Comix, New Website Stuff

So, I finally bit the bullet and sat down and did some work on www.torcpress.com yesterday. The main thing I did was tweak the online store. I removed the graphics from the page so everything loads faster now. To make up for that, I added links to the Preview Pages on every entry that's got a Preview Page, and, additionally, I added an "Add to Cart" Button to every Preview Page, so you can purchase a Comic directly from that page. I also split the Online Store into three separate stores. The Main Store has the Current, Core Books, while the other two stores have the older All Ages and Mature Readers Books. In additional addition, I've added two new Comix to the Site. Speaking of which...

Monster King #2 is now available from TORC Press! Yep, the Print Edition of the World's Greatest Psychedelic Action Comic that No One is Reading, is now available to the masses. It collects all the material from issue 2, which features Cactus Joe's battle with an Ortex Captain, as well as the dreaded Hassaan i Phantom, and it features the introduction of one of my favorite new characters, Mike the Butcher (and his perpetually sleeping Koala, Kolby). It's 24 Pages in Brilliant Full Color for $5.00 plus $1.50 S&H. If you are one of the people that's been following Monster King online, please support the cause by buying a copy. Pretty please, with Sugar on Top?

Also...

"The Clown & Tea Cup Show" #1 is now available from TORC Press. It's a 24 Page Mature Readers Comic in Black/White/Grey for $2.5o plus $1.50 S&H. The story starts out simple enough, Cactus Joe, Pengy Penguin, and Broken Tea Cup are rolling across the open highway when they stop for Burgers. Then things just get damn weird. One of the strangest comics I've ever made, this experimental oddity of a book is a must have for any fan of truly underground comix or experimental storytelling. Also, for longer term fans of TORC Press, this issue features the long awaited return of aliceislost and a cameo by the mysterious King Smooth.

Anyway, all of this is available at www.torcpress.com. Rock on.
