Cold

Grant Jonathan (aka Grant Gronwald, aka HTML Flowers) is an American/Australian cartoonist and musician living in Melbourne. His work is truly underground, presented through home photo-copied 'zines and limited-run books. His subject matter is himself, in confessional style, and his life with the chronic illness Cystic Fibrosis. The writing is in turns, eloquent, poetic, violent, nihilistic, and self-pitying, the hopeless chronicle of a self-confessed 'useless disabled' from himself, or his alter-ego 'Little'. CF is a f*cking death sentence, and how to live with death as constant is what gives his writing its power.

Grant has a semi-developed, deliberately half-assed cosmology, with the moon as the 'only friend to disableds'.
