Jim Mahfood, "True Tales of Amerikkkan History Part II: The True Thanksgiving"


"Tempe, Arizona artist, Jim Mahfood is one of these fortunate few. Not only is he a comic book artist and a damn good one, but at the tender age of twenty-three, he has already published several independent comics, written and illustrated his own book for Marvel's Gen X series, and recently illustrated the original Clerks comic. Clerks is based upon the characters created in Kevin Smith's breakout movie of the same title. Although stores were wary about stocking a black and white product, the Clerks comic book was an instant success and the first printing flew off the shelves. In less than a year, the book has gone to fourth printing with over seventy thousand copies in circulation worldwide. Now Smith and Mahfood have collaborated on the new Clerks: The Holiday Special comic, that will be released the second week of December in comic stores nationwide."
