Out this week: VICE magazine’s spanking-new Comics issue (Vol. 13, #5) , featuring guest editor Johnny Ryan. The issue is a doozy, kicking off with a collaborative cover by Johnny and legendary MAD artist Al Jaffee. Inside you’ll find a wide array of comics and drawings from many of the field’s best and brightest talents, including …Rick Altergott, Peter Bagge, Marc Bell, Jim Campbell, Martin Cendreda, Ben Cho, David Choe, Milano Chow, Dave Cooper, Jordan Crane, Robert Crumb, Sophie Crumb, Vanessa Davis, Patrick Dean, Mary Fleener, Sammy Harkham, Sam Henderson, Al Jaffee, Cole Johnson, Martin Kellerman, John Kerschbaum, Jim Krewson, Ted May, Lorna Miller, Tony Millionaire, Jeremy Onsmith, Gary Panter, Liz Prince, Johnny Ryan, Steven Weissman, Kurt Wolfgang, Dennis Worden, Dan Zettwoch…
