THE GUTTER REVIEW WILL BE AT HEROESCON 2024!
We'll be selling physical copies of our 40-page, full-color, hi-res first two issues at the table of the legendary artist (and TGR sponsor!) Simon Bisley, table C-AA-407-408.
SEE Y'ALL NEXT WEEK!
"Much beloved kick in the crotch to online comics criticism" is the only descriptor we've ever strived for. It's going on our tombstone.
AAAAA thank you so much Gary! "Much beloved kick in the crotch to online comics criticism" is the best endorsement we could have ever hope for 🙏

(We will, hopefully, in the future, be able to afford to invite more writers to once again join us in this fun new direction. Where better to be unhinged and immortalized than in print ♥️)

The first two issues are available NOW as digital PDF copies AND as physical mailable copies through Gumroad!
Please come support my independent comics criticism/archaeology/epistemology/neverending optimism/delusions🙏
We are stubborn and refuse to die, and are instead going to enjoy being as old school as the comics and films that we love to talk about so exhaustively and passionately.
Thank you, readers, for supporting our wonderful writers featured on the website these past two years.
For those of you who don't know, The Gutter Review has pivoted to print! The website will be archived, and all future installments will be available via downloadable PDF or -- and this is my favorite part -- mailable physical copies.
Let's celebrate the birthday of Sam Kieth, shall we?

We love a tradition.
