Time to say farewell to another strip – veteren comic creator Lew Stringer has announced that, after 31 years, he’s concluding his Brickman strip. The final Brickman strip appears as a back-up strip in Elephantmen #24, out now from Image Comics.
And, while it may be the end of Brickman, Lew intends to publish a collected Brickman Returns later in the year:
“I’ve revived Brickman several times over the past three decades but perhaps now it’s time to finally conclude the strip. After 30 years, I have no plans to produce any more new Brickman stories but my intention is to collect all 20 pages of the Brickman strips from Elephantmen into a comic I hope to self-publish sometime this year. Stay tuned for more info on the one-shot compilation comic Brickman Returns in the months to come. Meanwhile, if you’re interested in the earlier adventures of Brickman, copies of the 152 page digest softback Brickman Begins can be bought from my website.“
