Writhe and Shine: A Gothic Look into New Orleans

Post by The Fallen »

Amazing and hilarious comic I thought I should share, you guys going down should try and make their party on nov 2nd ;)

This one is my personal fave so far
Tall Shoes

But then there's this short piece: Jesus was a DJ which is only accesible through the List and using the back button a lot but here's my fave out of that...
Why Jesus was a DJ
Oh sad is the world. but I have Kavorkian's scarf.

This comic strip is a NOLA goth staple & i remember running across it while I was searching for goth things to do in NOLA a few years ago.


Thanks for the link I almost thought it had died off (the comic).

I have been a long time Fan of Writhe & Shine. While set in NOLA it crosses the goth scene EVERYWHERE. I have empathised with Writhe on more times than I can count....lol

I HIGHLY recommend reading the website, there is even a link on the home page to Voltaire's parody Writhe & Whine.
I just wish I could stay in NOLA for the book release party for Issue #2 of W&S at 735. *sigh* But being home for Sanctus's 2nd B-day is Much more important.

Well, I wish I could have stayed as well, but at least I brought home a flyer. Yeah, I know, I'm a geek

Robert has found a few copies of his original book. He has put one of them on E-Bay.

have any of you comic book fans ever read dogwitch?
it is my personal favorite of choice as of late.... i only have issues 2 and 4. they seem to be quite hard to come by for some reason.
here is the website if you are interested, however i don't think that they have the comic book viewable online... but it is still a great website.

books carried in your local comic book store! All you have to do is
give the following web address to the guy behind the counter or more
importantly, the guy who does the ordering, and tell him he needs to
carry my book. It's that simple!

This is a website for an independent comic book distributor that
carries a bunch of stuff that the big guys don't:

I received this e-mail from the creater of Writhe and Shine. I just figured I'd pass it along to all of you. I don't go to many comic book stores anymore, but I know some of you still go.....
