Jeff Mason, publisher of Alternative Comics, posted an update on the Alternative Comics blog Wednesday (the first post in almost a year) regarding his current personal situation. Mason, who has been dealing with health problems for the past few years (possibly longer, please excuse my ignorance) delivered a positive sounding state of affairs.
“For the first time in years, I have absolutely no abdominal pain. I’m still weak as a kitten, and don’t yet have stamina – but that will improve with time.”
I was never really in tune with the comings and goings of indie publishers and was shocked to hear about Mason’s problems when I did. Alternative Comics has published some pretty crucial creators in the past (Bertozzi, Annable, Kochalka, etc.) and to know that such a hard-working indie comics publisher, let alone anyone, has to deal with chronic debilitating health issues is truly heartbreaking.
Our best wishes go out to Jeff, his family and friends.
