CONUNDRUM PRESS
HOWIE ACTION COMICS GN
You’ll laugh despite yourself at Howard Chackowicz’s twisted, funny, yet
surprisingly poignant cartoons. A mix of New Yorker gags gone awry, underground
comix and nightmarish kids’ books illustrations, Howie Action Comics represents
many years of the artist’s output. Often called a “cartoonist’s cartoonist”
Chackowicz was nominated for a Harvey Award for his early work on Dennis
Eichhorn’s Real Stuff, and his painted comic mural art was officially selected
for the Angoulême comic festival in France. Besides working in his artfield, he
has taught cartooning and comics in a variety of institutions over the years and
his hilarious appearances on the CBC radio show “Wiretap” have led to a
broadcasting award. Howie Action Comics is the third release in the conundrum
press BDANG imprint. (C: 0-1-1)
