The 24 page, preview of TO GET HER will be posted in the form of weekly updates and will be sure to keep fans informed of publication dates and details of the soon to be completed graphic novel.

Bernie’s work on The JAM, which had been published by Comico, Slave Labor Graphics and Caliber, had been nominated for both Harvey and Eisner awards, as has his work on Matt Wagner’s Grendel.

The Jam

Bernie Mireault is leading off with a short story called Cable that we hope will be the first of many works in the BEM WORK Archive,
here at CO2 Comics.
Bernie is yet another fine comic artist culled from the days of Comico the Comic Company where he produced some of his earliest work on his own title The Jam and on Matt Wagner’s Grendel: The Devil Within. His work was so outstanding that he received both Harvey and Eisner Award nominations. Bernie’s unique style is a blend of traditional comics, gritty underground, quasi-euro-manga, and art comics.

Grendel

His attitude that comics are “folk art” and not “pretentious twaddle” is why he is a perfect fit here at CO2 Comics where we intend to provide a diverse range of exciting quality comics that are accessible to the traditional comic enthusiast while broadening the possibilities of the medium. For a better understanding of what makes Bernie tick as a comic artist visit his website or read a great interview with him on CBR.
