Modern Tales

A 12-issue anthology series from Eidalon, Modern Tales (2005–2009) collected short-form comics by a rotating cast of indie talents, with Andi Watson and Kerry Callen among the artists most frequently contributing. It offered a showcase for slice-of-life, whimsical, and character-driven stories, providing a platform for creators outside the mainstream. The series stands as a modest but notable artifact of the mid-2000s small-press scene, preserving a moment when anthology comics served as a vital space for experimental and personal storytelling.
