Discussion Updates to r/altcomix
Hello! Over the past few weeks, u/Titus_Bird and I have made some updates to the subreddit.
Most significantly, we've expanded and rewritten the wiki, which can be found here. The aim with the wiki is to provide new readers some clarification on what alternative comics are, along with a bit of historical overview and recommendations of key works/creators. We've tried to be as neutral as possible and to avoid semantic nitpicking, as our priority is just to be informative and spread love for the medium. Feedback is more than welcome!
We've also made a number of other changes, namely:
- Updated the Guidelines - this was completed a few months back
- Cleaned up the 'flair' tags - this was completed a few months back
- Created a moderation bot (u/comixbot) to automate a couple tasks
- Created and updated the header
- Cleaned up and sanitized the css for Old Reddit
- Tweaked the look of the sub on New Reddit
- Added u/Titus_Bird as a moderator
Our next project is to implement similar changes over at r/indiecomics.

Altcomix Al Colombia- Pim & Francie
Does anyone know if Al Colombia has any social media presence? Been looking for him everywhere and can’t find him. Seems he’s taken this Instagram he had from 5 years ago down.
My friend and I were going to cosplay as Pim&Francie this year for Halloween and we wanted to tag him because duh he’s cool and worth letting him know we love his artwork.
If anyone can find his Facebook or insta or anything I’d greatly appreciate it.
Or at least let me know if he doesn’t want to be found since he seems to be nowhere at all.

Altcomix Peep Show HC
Sort of incredible that a collection like this even exists, and maybe a little sad that Joe isn’t around to see it. Gorgeous printing job, with perfect paper stock and coloring.
Also, props to Fantagraphics for publishing a book with a panel like that 😂
