Underground Comix Scholar, Patrick Rosenkranz will be teaching an 8 week History of Comics program at the Pacific Northwest College of Art. Rosenkranz's contribution to the medium of comics is monumental and his class is sure to bring it. There's a lot of comics noise down in Portland, so if you're reading this and live in The City of Roses then you need to start smelling the roses and listen up! If you happen to pay sales tax and pump yer own gas then I implore you to check out the brand new The Artist Himself: A Rand Holmes Retrospective as well as You Call This Art?! A Greg Irons Retrospective (only a couple of copies left!) and the indispensable Rebel Visions: The Underground Comix Revolution 1963-1975 .
