Henderson to publish with Alternative Press, Inc.Magic Whistle to debut March, 1998
Sam Henderson's boisterously entertaining work has been charming readers for years -- in newspapers across the U.S., in Nickelodeon Magazine, in DC Comics' Cartoon Network Presents, and in his own hilarious self-published comic book series, The Magic Whistle. Now this Ignatz Award nominated cartoonist has come to Alternative Press, Inc., to publish his all-new Magic Whistle series, with the first extra-length two-color issue engaging readers in March, 1998.
Imagine a strange world where the daily "funnies" actually made you laugh. Alas, you can never live in that world, but when you are reading Magic Whistle, you can pretend like you do! Critics are raving about Sam Henderson and Magic Whistle! "Better critics than myself have been screaming about Henderson for years," said The Comics Journal editor Tom Spurgeon. "The Magic Whistle is so stupid that it can only be the work of a genius," said Seattle's The Stranger columnist James Sturm, "If you can read this comic book without laughing, you are not human."
Magic Whistle is a 32 page two-color continuing quarterly series, debuting March 1998 at a retail price of $2.95.

Alternative Press, Inc., also publishes indy Magazine, Ed Brubaker's Detour, Humongous Man, Jon Lewis' Spectacles, and Steve Weissman's Yikes.
