Mad Mentol MacBams march past....


"Dave Alexander has been creating amazingly detailed and genuinely funny comic strips in the Glasgow comic scene for longer than most folk can remember. So when Rob Miller of Hope St studios mentioned a collected work was in the offing I immediately got myself a copy and sat down for a laughter filled trip down memory lane. I first discovered Dave’s work within the pages of the now defunct yet still marvellous Electric Soup and a later on in Northern Lightz, titles he shared with talents as diverse as Alan Grant, Jamie Grant, Jim Stewart (aka Ganjaman) Rob Miller and Frank Quietly to name but a few."

And so begins the first review (other than those of the unofficial, overheard sort, the richly deserved congratulatory efforts along the lines of, "this is the greatest collection ever!" and, "there's never been a book better than this in 30 years!" which are of course far too unreliable and spurious to quote here) of A Trip Down The Temporal U-bend With The Mad Mentol MacBam Brothers (or ATDTTUbWTMMMcBB for short....) courtesy of the lovely chaps over at the Talk Comix website.
