Welcome To
Mad Terrorist Press
"you're welcome."
MTP was created in 1994 by Jose
Garibaldi (as a sixteen year old 11th grade student) out of a desire to
create comics that fell outside his usual superhero crud. Attempting to
gather his fellow students for a comix anthology titled "A-Bomb
Comix"( clever title, ennit?). Mad Terrorist Press was the name
chosen to represent this comic (which never saw the light of day). Finding
difficulties in acquiring stories from his peers (too busy doing high school
type shit), Jose self published his own comics under MTP.
the original MTP werkshop..
In the summer of 1995, Obsess
number one kicked off MTP's original run, which included Hab Deluxe, Wesley
Willis and Uncle Schlomo's Cartoon Bonanza (see the MTP Classik page for
more info) Publishing halted while Jose got his shit together. He has yet
to do so ...
Discouraged by missed opportunities
and disillusioned with the comics "industry", Jose focused his
efforts on his illustration work. For the next four years Jose created T-shirt
designs, spot illustrations and animation. In 1999 he landed a job creating
graphics and animation for JRL Enterprises' "I Can Learn"
series of educational software (where he remains today).Working
at JRL provided Jose with the knowledge necessary to create computer graphics
and web sites.
Now, in 2002, MTP returns. Setting up www.madterroristpress.com
creates an outlet for new and experimental comics. Current work is being
posted at http://www.madterroristpress/mtp.html.
The new MTP already features new work by Garibaldi, Scott Ruhl, Dave Crosland,
and "The Eggplant" Stan Wenches, with bunches and bunches of new
works by a variety of artistes.
