Boring, uncomfortable and mutated: about the Portuguese publisher Chili Com Carne.

As I fail to muster the strenght (and time) to return to form, and write reviews on the oh so many news books around, here is an opportunity to share previous work. This is an article I wrote for an academic anthology on DIY culture, and I’ve decided to zero in on one of the most vibrant, varied and virulent indie publishers from Portugal, Chili Com Carne.

“Boring, uncomfortable and mutated : Chili Com Carne at the nexus of the contemporary portuguese independent comic press” was written for Paula Guerra and Pedro Quintela’s edited volume Independent DIY Publications and the Underground Urban Cultures (Universidade do Porto. Faculdade de Letras: 2021).
