“Heavy Enough To Fall” is the third monthly anthology from Stumptown Underground, centralized around the theme of rain. In this issue, you’ll find comics, writing, and illustrations from the likes of Dylan Williams, Mike Merrill, Sean Christensen, Jack Bracken, Emmalena Schulte, Katy Ellis O’Brien, and many more.
Stumptown Underground is a zine collective, publishing monthly issues that include pretty much anything you can put in a zine (writing, comics, illustrations, reviews, recipes, etc) and centralized around a different theme each month. Our purpose in doing this monthly zine is to give ourselves and the people who submit the opportunity to be inspired by monthly themes to create more, to get more of their creative work out in the world, and to build community. You can find more information online, as well as extensive previews of all issues.
