Pood is a larger, broadsheet-style comics anthology in the manner of DC Comics’ Wednesday Comics, featuring 16 of today’s most exciting alternative comics creators. Celebrating the variety and style of Sunday comics sections of the pre-World War II-era, each creator has a full page to display their dynamic talents in strips of comedy, adventure, parody, and science fiction.

All this for the great price of only $4! How could you go wrong!? You can’t. Here are some samplings of reviews of Pood #1:

“One of the Best Comics from the 2010 MoCCA Art Festival”
New York Daily News

“The most interesting release – the most “buzzworthy” release of the entire (MoCCA 2010) show, really, was pood #1, from Big If Comics. pood is an oversized newsprint anthology, with plenty of great-looking artists featured inside.”
Timothy Callahan

“Pood pushes the envelope so far that it becomes a promise of what comics can be and an always-welcome reminder that there is no limit to the kinds of stories comics can be used to tell.”
Louis Vitela
ComicCritique

“Truly an awesome comics experience, both to hold and to read… an incredibly entertaining read. It’s an experience you won’t find easily matched in today’s comics…. something that you won’t want to miss!”

This April, Pood will touch cloth. As we get closer to release, I’ll be less cryptic but NOT less scatological. In the meantime, enjoy the above preview. Click image for a full size view.
