Got this rad ashcan of upcoming @darkhorse.com American Caper for Patreoning my pal @chrisacomics.bsky.social. Chris is doing finishes on David “Warriors of Plasm” Lapham, from a story by GTA vets. Looks rad, and all too timely. Also got this punchy porcine pop! Patreon FTW #comicbooks #comicsky

The back cover of "American Caper" #1 graphic novel showcases a striking, chaotic illustration. A monstrous face dominates, its swirling eye hinting at madness. Surrounding it are scenes of gambling: dice, playing cards, and people engaged in a high-stakes game, some appearing distressed. The color palette is dark and moody, emphasizing the comic's theme of damaged families amidst corruption. The tagline promises a darkly humorous story. Pre-order information directs readers to local comic shops, Dark Horse Comics, and Absurd Ventures.

A gritty, graphic novel panel showcases a dramatic moment. Multiple characters are engaged in a heated argument filled with profanity. The art style is dark and intense, emphasizing the violent energy of the scene. A character appears to be injured or attacked, with splatter effects suggesting a forceful impact. The word "KRASH" is prominently displayed, highlighting the climactic event. The overall mood is one of raw emotion, tension, and impending danger.

A striking image showcases the cover of a graphic novel titled "Three-Headed Pigman." The cover art depicts a powerful, stylized pig character wearing a futuristic, partially mechanical suit in shades of pink and green. The pig's design blends organic and mechanical elements, creating a unique cyberpunk aesthetic. The title is bold, with a retro-futuristic font in lime green and pink, adding to the overall dynamic energy of the piece. The artist's signature is subtly included at the bottom. The book rests on a light wood surface, suggesting a relaxed yet intriguing display.

A close-up shot showcases a vibrant, psychedelic comic book spread. The art style is detailed and grotesque, featuring a large, pink, bio-organic creature traversing space, consuming worlds. Speech bubbles reveal the narrative – a being devouring planets and incorporating the "heads of its highest intellectual inhabitants" into its body as a form of propulsion. The overall mood is dark, surreal, and humorous, contrasting the cosmic horror with casual dialogue. A smaller figure in the lower right corner seems to be reacting to the events.

This zine exposes and showcases a selection of this history from biographies of adult stars to some of the early Japanese manga imports. It also covers controversies that came with this genre and some of the popular cartoonists that worked within its sordid past.
