Paul Kirchner's The Bus vol. 1 is online for free

Angouleme
This was one of my favorite comic strips when I moved to DC in 1983 and it was appearing in the Washington City Paper along with other alternative comics. I loved the surrealism of it. As Tom Inge wrote, "Anything can happen in a comic strip." I met Paul in Angouleme, France a few years ago, but he's also come to SPX since then.

 
SPX

And here's some PR from Paul's publisher about the newest volume.



Coming May 7, 2025

the bus 3

Paul Kirchner


https://www.tanibis.net/en/livres/the-bus-3/

 

Since the dawn of time, humanity has searched tirelessly for this, the perfect vehicle. Driving world history and embodying all our aspirations, it is the answer to all metaphysical questions, the alpha and omega of the human condition, the vessel of our destiny. The bus is back!


Paul Kirchner revives his famous coach, in all its mesmerizing variations, to extend the bus series, the comic strip he started in 1979 in the pages of the American comics magazine Heavy Metal and continued in 2015 with the bus 2.
Each panel is an adventure that takes the commuter – a bald and bespectacled fellow – to an unpredictable destination. His body is thrown from one setting to another, cut to pieces, swallowed, or literally unknitted, constantly on the verge of vanishing and enduring all kinds of metamorphoses.



Each panel is an adventure that takes the commuter – a bald and bespectacled fellow – to an unpredictable destination. His body is thrown from one setting to another, cut to pieces, swallowed, or literally unknitted, constantly on the verge of vanishing and enduring all kinds of metamorphoses.


Meanwhile, the bus is successively turned into a balloon, a trash compacter, and a movie theater that shows the same film over and over, thus becoming both the creator and the scene of a great conspiracy.


Kirchner pushes absurdity ever further and gives unexpected conclusions to the most common situations. At the same time, the reader gets carried away by this art of illusion, in which shadows and reflections come to life as in a surrealist painting.

GOODIE: Every copy pre-ordered on our website will be accompanied by the minibus — a brand new 16-page minicomic by Paul Kirchner.






Paul Kirchner was born in 1952 in New Haven, Connecticut.


After studying art at Cooper Union in New York, he worked as an assistant to cartoonists Tex Blaisdell, Ralph Reese, and later Wallace Wood.


In the 1970s, he created Dope Rider, a series of short stories set in a surreal Western universe, following the hazy adventures of a cannabis-loving skeleton. He also illustrated numerous covers for Screw magazine and collaborated with Heavy Metal where he published various short stories and his comic strip series the bus.


In the early 1980s, he illustrated Murder by Remote Control, a graphic novel based on a script by Dutch crime writer Janwillem van de Wetering. The book was published in the U.S. in 1986.


Paul Kirchner later stepped away from the world of comics, but returned to it in the mid-2010s. He resumed work on the bus and Dope Rider, while also creating a new strip titled Hieronymus & Bosch.

Paul Kirchner's comics are published in both English and French by Tanibis.

That darn Baldo and Edith Pritchett



The April 7 "Baldo." (Hector Cantú and Carlos Castellanos/Baldo Partnership/Dist. by Andrews McMeel Syndication)

Speaking of corrosive stereotypes [Baldo letter]

Bobbie Gottschalk, Washington

Washington Post (April 19 2025): A15.

Is there no one monitoring the comics in your newspaper these days? On April 7, 8 and 9, "Baldo" showed two workers in a store, one lighter-skinned and the other darker-skinned. Guess which one was portrayed as lazy.

This is how prejudice works. You make it acceptable to laugh at jokes about a targeted group. Couching prejudice in the form of a comic doesn't make it funny.




Full tilt [Edith Pritchett letter]

Evan Zeppos, Brookfield, Wisconsin

Washington Post (April 19 2025): A15.

Having majored in pinball during my first year of college, I noticed that Edith Pritchett's April 7 editorial cartoon, "Let's play tariff pinball!," left off one very important part of the game: the tilt signal.

I've played pinball for more than 50 years. Every pinball machine has a tilt mechanism that shuts down the game if it is pushed around too much.


“#1 Happy Family USA” cartoon featured in WaPo

Ramy Youssef's latest show finds absurdity in post-9/11 Islamophobia. [in print as Taking silly swings in post-9/11 sitcom; "#1 Happy Family USA"]

Washington Post April 19, 2025: C1, 3.
