Main Enterprises' Brain Freeze #7 has just hit print, and it's a grandiose one for sure: a sword-and-sorcery/fantasy/adventure tribute, no less. Wow, oh wow! 

The spectacular ingredients are designed to make one feel exceptionally barbaric and brawny, with awe-inspiring creations by Main's faithful regulars: Rick McCollum (who created the above, stupendous cover); Troy David Boyle; Guido Rosas; Verl Holt Bond; John Lambert; Wayne Judge; Jacob Dubi; Mike Maloney; Brad Foster; Link Huller; Kevin Duncan; Mark Haines; and Robert J. Sodaro. 

In connection to the aforementioned, Brad Orlich supplies the epic "Arnza: Well of the Warlock"; Verl Holt Bond offers the uncompromising "Undefeated"; Wayne Judge bestows the hard-hitting "Of Portents & Dreams" (with illustrations by Jacob Dubi); Link Huller summons the magical "Demons, Diamonds and Daggers" (with imagery by Kevin Duncan); and Rick McCollum unleashes the relentless "I'm in Love with Attila the Hun"! Great, fierce fun from start to finish!

MAIN'S BRAIN FREEZE #6: TASTY SLICES OF LIFE

Just as many of us were about to slip into Brain Freeze withdraw, publisher Jim Main comes to the rescue, serving us Issue #6 (March '21). 

The Slice of Life issue is a darn delicious one, too, with an appetizing cover by Brad Foster and a vast variety of ingredients, presented per a generous heart.

Inside one will find Simon Mackie's clever homage to the The Bicycle Thief, The Umbrella Thief, in addition to his indignant but humorous entry, Crosswords. There's also Verl Bond's sentimental Chance Meeting; Jerry Szostek's surreal Rhyme & Reason; and Robert Sodaro and Thomas Ahern's parent/child-sprung The Muse. Additional artistry for this issue comes from Rick McCollum, Kel Crum, Alan Groening, Jacob Dubi, Kevin Duncan and John Lambert.

The enclosed seasoning is eclectic, empathetic and down-to-earth, making Brain Freeze #6 an extra-special submission among Main Enterprise's ever expanding series. 

For pre-ordering information on Brain Freeze #6, please contact Mr. Main at mainjim23@gmail.com.

JIM MAIN'S BRAIN FREEZE #1-A: A FAR-OUT, COSMIC-COMIC TREAT!!!


(Jim) Main Enterprises comes through again with another stunning and unique submission. It's called Brain Freeze: a mini comic (available in hard-copy/PDF formats) that's distinguished by stylish artwork and varied, spacey concepts covering a number of themes.


Inside one will find Verl Holt Bond's engaging epic, "Neanderthal Sunset" and Bob Vojtko's exuberant "Rocket Roach and Radar", which churns a belly full of laughs.


In addition, this initial issue contains contributions by Kevin Duncan, Steve Shipley, Doc Boucher, Doug Holverson, Jon Lawrence, Brian D. Leonard, Marc Haines (logo designer!) and John Lambert, who supplies this issue's saucy Saucerman image, plus a wondrous "War of the Worlds" homage. (To usher it all, Mr. Main gives readers a most amiable "From the Publisher" welcome.)


Brain Freeze is one of the most enjoyable, illustrated experiments to emerge in years, and yes, a sequel is well in the works (to cover some cool, kaiju concepts, word has it), so hop aboard while the "freeze" is nice and hot. 


For those interested in obtaining Brain Freeze #1-A, please contact Jim Main at mainjim23@gmail.com for ordering details.
