Knapsack Magazine is a comics anthology that is a love letter to our collective weird kid nostalgia. Comics have been ever present through our lives, and with Knapsack Magazine we wanted to emulate our love for serialized manga publications like Shojo Beat and Shonen Jump, popularized in North America during the 90's and early 2000's. Knapsack is meant to fit snugly in your Jansport backpack, holding precious things, ready to be a friend on your way back from school. With this anthology, we hope to evoke the nostalgia and excitement of picking up a new manga after school and being swept away into an entirely new world.
Knapsack will be offset printed at 210mm x 270mm on newsprint-like paper, to evoke the style of manga printing, in dark pink and aqua blue inks. Each comic is printed in one color, alternating throughout the volume. Illustrations and articles are two colors, with a style emulating risograph color layering.
Previews of just a few of this volume's illustration pages! Knapsack Magazine is intended to be a serialized magazine with several of our stories continuing over the course of several volumes, each with a different theme derived from each volume's title word!
