Just wanted to quickly say, I ran into this publisher at the MoCCA Art Festival a couple weekends ago, and man do they do some classy, neat-o stuff.

All their books at the moment are smart pulp, combining lucha libre with noir, horror, and good humor — but hey, that’s pretty goddam dope, right? It’s nice every once in a while to come across an indie comic that’s good AND doesn’t make you want to suck on a tailpipe.

Everything Calavera does is really nicely produced, incredibly well designed, and stylishly drawn in superbly executed Paul Pope/David Lapham (and sometimes Ashley Wood)-esque fashion. Email or PayPal these dudes or whatever and pick up the first couple issues of Rudo, which are great fun.

They have a bunch of hot-shit-awesome posters and shirts for sale, too.

Keep your eye on these guys…
