Boing Boing

There’s a nice write up about Forming on BoingBoing by Peter Bebergal, the author of “Season of the Witch: How the Occult Saved Rock and Roll“. Peter was kind enough to send me a copy of his book out of nowhere. Check it out if you can!

Mike Parker

“There appears to be something at stake here, and sometimes it feels as if we are reading Moynihan’s own spiritual hopes and confusions.” Yes, I think that’s a crucial insight!
Queequeg

He kind of nailed it.
schmow town

is there any where we can find some of your older stuff? I’d love to see where you came from creatively with your autobio work.
Jesse Moynihan

I have two early comics called “Backwards Folding Mirror” and a graphic novel called “Follow Me”. I think the BFM comics are still available through Alternative Comics at least in some format. http://indyworld.com/imprints/alternative-comics/jesse-moynihan/the-backwards-folding-mirror-1/ and http://indyworld.com/imprints/alternative-comics/jesse-moynihan/the-backwards-folding-mirror-2/
Follow Me is not available anywhere except for a lot of money on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Follow-Me-Backwards-Folding-Mirror/dp/0977767981. Finding anything before that is sort of a waste of time, because it’s not so good and way out of print.

Also Idk if you read my Kime Agine comic strips on this website, but they’re here if you scroll down to the left.

Hi J Moyns why is your twitter in Russian?
Jesse Moynihan

Because I quit twitter and some robot in Russia stole my handle.
Joshua Ray Stephens

I read his article accidentally, maybe through Twitter? Just because I noticed your work. I thought it was one of the most compelling and thoughtful pieces I had seen in a while. I appreciated that he actually tried to grapple (at least a little) with the work on it’s own terms. I had a dude do a write up of “the Moth or the Flame” a few years back and rather than make any attempt to comprehend the possibility of symbolism at work he just panned it as willfully obscure, implying that I was writing an inside joke to myself. Ugghh…
Joshua Ray Stephens

Jeez! it might be easier to break in to Fort Knox than it was to post a comment on your site. 😂😂😂😂
Jesse Moynihan

Sorry I was getting spammed like crazy for a while. Had to switch to disqus!
Jesse Moynihan

There’s no quality control for critics unfortunately. Some good ones and some bad ones.
Joshua Ray Stephens

True that shit. Anyway, I was so impressed by Mr Bebergal’s article, whom I had never heard of, that I immediately followed him on Twitter. Aaaaand I don’t know why I am telling you this, because, you know, who gives a shit who I am following on Twitter?
Joshua Ray Stephens

Yeh, I get it. I was just having a laugh.
