News and views from the Dutch Uncle of dreamland.
posted by Jim Woodring at 11:22 AM
I was born in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California and enjoyed an exciting childhood full of poetry and paroniria among the snakes, rats and tarantulas of that enchanted realm. I eventually grew into an inquisitive bearlike man who has had three exciting careers; garbage collector, merry-go-round-operator and cartoonist. Some of my work is collected in THE BOOK OF JIM, THE FRANK BOOK and SEEING THINGS (all published by Fantagraphics) and in various toys, fabrics, prints and urban legends. Thank you for your interest.

Great little short story accompanying the picture, dude.
Great drawing. Peace in the valley. The story reminds me of a lyric from Dylan.
I can't go to paradise no more
I killed a man back there
I can imagine a continued strip of this image that has panels showing a giant body attached to the creature looming over Frank. The last few panels being of Frank opening his eyes, looking back and screaming in terror.
