Jizz #6

Aug 1991 · Fantagraphics · 2.25 USD; 2.95 CAD
“Al Hackendola (Fictitious Teacher of a Certain Fictitious Art School's Cartooning Dept.)”

"Al Hackendola (Fictitious Teacher of a Certain Fictitious Art School's Cartooning Dept.)" is a self-aware, wryly ironic entry in Scott Russo’s surreal anthology series Jizz, where the artist/writer turns his lens on the absurdity of art school pretensions and the art world’s self-seriousness. Presented in Russo’s signature raw, expressive style—penciled, inked, and lettered entirely by him—the story unfolds with the kind of deadpan humor that makes even the most mundane academic setting feel like a fever dream. The cover, also by Russo, mirrors the issue’s meta tone with a deliberately rejected design that’s both funny and telling.
