In addition to his prolific self-published mini-comics, Tom K.’s comics regularly appear in the Fantagraphics anthology, Mome. Born in Poland before the fall of the Iron Curtain, Tom distills his worldly experiences into comics that often wander through dense internal worlds, exploring philosophical and metaphysical questions about the past and the future, and a search for Utopia. Or something like that — it’s truly fascinating stuff!

I met Tom at a small art expo at the Minnesota Center for Book Arts. After that it seemed like I ran into him at every art opening I went to. We spoke frequently of going out drinking and drawing, but it never came to pass before I left Minnesota again. Instead, here we are making prints together!
