Jim Shepard: Negotiate Nothing
Nix Rock 'N' Roll Comics

***The second publication adapted from BELA KOE-KROMPECHER's blog released by Nix Comics. The first, Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Record Stores? was a very accessible piece about meeting the Ramones. This new piece is written like a therapeutic focused free writing exercise wherein Bela throws down riffs on the topic of JIM SHEPARD as they relate to his like as a record label owner, retailer and general fixture in the '90s indie music scene as they pertain to his relationships past and present. The train of thought isn't very linear and disregards the notion that the reader may not have read the entirety of Bela's blog. Illustrated by ANDY BENNETT and edited by KEN EPSTEIN.

Bela's blog has a readership of over 60,000 and has been featured in Paste, WFMU, vinyljourney.com, Dusted and many other blogs and music journals. "Do You Remember" is a full-fledged comic, drawn by Marvel/DC artist Andy Bennett and adapted by Nix Comics honcho, Ken Eppstein. With a limited run of only 500 print copies (with 350 pre-sells), "Do You Remember" is a nice time capsule for those who survived the past two decades. Bela also contributed to "Malls Across America" by photographer Michael Galinsky which was named one of Time magazine's books of the year for 2013.  Some words about Bela's writing: "Very few of us are able to write about the formative experiences of our twenties without coming off as nostalgic has-beens, wannabes, or never-weres... As unfortunate and perhaps even depressing as the story sounds, it's a fascinating phenomenon to observe from within oneself, and by my count, no one is doing a better job of chronicling the metamorphosis than Bela Koe-Krompecher"-Read.My.Back (WPRB) "Bela wrote the finest ode to Jim Shepard"-fuckinrecordreviews "the best...
