My publisher Drawn And Quarterly asked Neil Gaiman if he would read my upcoming graphic novel, Why Don’t You Love Me?, and, incredibly, he replied with this blurb for it. I’ve known about this for a few weeks now and all I want to know is, when does the reeling stop?
Cartoonist Paul Rainey is the creator of There's No Time Like The Present, Thunder Brother: Soap Division and Book of Lists and is an occasional contributor to Viz. His current big project, Why Don't You Love Me, appears regularly in ACES Weekly. He is the winner of the Observer/Jonathan Cape/Comica Graphic Short Story Prize 2020. His latest comic is Journey Into Indignity. My online shop is www.pbrainey.bigcartel.com.

Gripe Night is here!
GRIPE NIGHT is the latest collection of comics written and drawn by Paul B. Rainey, Viz Comic cartoonist, and winner of the Jonathan Cape/Observer Newspaper/Comica Short Story Prize.
I have been secretly working away on GRIPE NIGHT for over a year and the majority of its content has not been seen elsewhere before. Strips include….
Similar To But Not! The winner of the Jonathan Cape/Observer Newspaper/Comica Short Story Prize in 2019. Presented in Gripe Night as God intended for the first time!
Unseen episodes of Ricky Gervais: He Talks To The Animals!
Unbelievable but true stories from the artist’s memoirs including William, It Was Everything, Boom Boom Push The Button and introducing Aunty Bunty!
PLUS… Wicksy Goes Berserk! The Paul Willyhood Story! The Draw! And much more!
GRIPE NIGHT is 28 pages long, features a mix of black and white and colour strips, A4 sized magazine.
The first rule of GRIPE NIGHT is that you tell everybody about GRIPE NIGHT.
Richard Bruton for Comicon, “I’ve read Rainey’s work for decades now – and it would be fair to say that he’s never written or drawn better”.
You can buy Gripe Night from my shop.
