About the Book
Limited Edition retrospective of a 30-year body of work.
This book consists of mature and provocative comic art mashups and naughty pop culture tweaks created over the past 30 years.
Knocking down the icon is a major theme of Superaunchy. The artist has the capacity to merge the lowbrow with the erudite, telling the truth behind the fairy tale, what he calls “a fun house reflection of a bankrupt culture.” By infusing loving homage and nostalgic longing with harsh realities and biting satire, Superaunchy wishes to express something honest and meaningful about contemporary society and the world we live in.

About the Creator
Issues Gallery
Queens, NY
As mental health has always been a taboo, stigmatized subject, the one thing people all fear, we at Issues Gallery lean into our respective issues, trauma, and treatment, benefitting from years of therapy, and using the arts as a way to understand and heal ourselves and others. We offer ourselves up as courageous examples of expressive arts therapy, healing, and using these tools; through exhibition of our work, art books, and memoirs, as guideposts and breadcrumbs for others still lost in the fog of mental illness and instability but aware enough to want to find a way out.
