Bougie, Robin

In 1997, underground comic artist and zine publisher Robin Bougie began Cinema Sewer magazine, an ode to the seamier side of film and the culture which surrounds it. Bougie used his geek knowledge, his artistic skills as comic book artist, and connections in the world of porn to give birth to this unseemly but loveable publication. Printed comic-sized on cruddy newsprint, the magazine found an audience amongst film fans looking for something totally different. Bougie contributes liner notes for dvd releases and has now self-published almost 80 comic books since he was 18.
