Is Blister Packs one of the best books ever?
Umm, probably not. But it is one of the most visually stunning.
I finally stopped being a slack-ass and got a copy. So far the stories are really good. But, damn, the layout is fantastic. Great job Ben and R.John. I am both awed and inspired.

I am still pretty proud of it.
But it was all BEN.
That tall drink of water is pretty artsy.

METHINKS R.JOHN IS BEING TOO HUMBLE

Yes, yes, it is a fine piece of work. I finally got off my ass and bought a copy as well recently.

yep

I think R.John is being too humble too.
But Ben should get mad props for the bee-oo-tiful layout of the book. The Strummer "article" layout alone was inspired.

((((((:::::::::::::::::::::::::::)))))))

that strummer piece was written by an old time poster here on these boards. Jon Borstal Boy! I think he now lives in the UK throwing fish at Americans.

Also.
Thanks for all the nice words about blister packs.
I got boxes of them left.
