Chap Manifesto

Chap Manifesto:



While we're on the subject of manliness, I'm going to plug the Chap Manifesto, a guide to modern gentlemanliness,
it takes the modern and enlightened man through all aspects of daily life.

It was published by the same people who bring you the Chap magazine every two months, and who continue their process of thinking online. (Title Link)

Revolutionary reading for the enlightened homme du monde! and for les bonnes dammes to understand what he's on about half the time!

The Books of Faragh Vol. 3: Of March 2020

The May Issue is available at  Modern Graphics in Oranienstr., Berlin.  It's all about lines.  Below: The April Issue of the Book of Faragh.  The comic I chose for this month was "L'Arabe du Futur 2 (1984—1985)" by Riad Sattouf.
