Does what it says on the tin! I joined Corinne Halbert, Gigi Murakami, TInguu, and kickass mod Peter Rostovsky at SPX (Small Press Expo) to discuss body horror, get really deep into the nature and reasoning behind the drive to make it, and, yup, drop a shitton of Tate backstory, process, and lore at some point. (He was my talking point, lmfao).

It was a total honor being among some of the greatest fucking minds in indie horror comics, and I can't wait to hang out with everyone again!! <3333

SPX 2024: Ripping the Flesh the Viscerality of Body Horror

There are some comics you can just feel, right through the page. Horror comics that rely on graphic depictions of violence and gore do it for a reason, but the reason can vary. For some comics, it can be connected to psychedelia and satire. For others, it’s meant to conjure up the unsettling images of eldritch and Lovecraftian forces. For others, this kind of violence blends with erotica. Some cartoonists can make gore funny. Moderator Peter Rostovsky will discuss how and why Corinne Halbert (Acid Nun, Scorpio Venus Rising), Tinguu (The Cannibals), Gigi Murakami (Resenter), and Andi Santagata (Yennefer’s Body) use gore and violence. Panelists: Corinne Halbert, Gigi Murakami, Andi Santagata, Tinguu
