Kevin F and John G are a pair of artists working outta Cleveland and doing their part to create (and conserve) a vibrant little arts and comics scene in the Buckeye State. They deserve a round of applause and a series of vigorous high-fives, at the very least.

The boys have been kind enough to post the first issue of Shiner magazine online for free downloading so that anyone can soak up the anthologized short stories of John G, Kevin Fagan and George McDougall. When was the last time you read comics that dealt with memory, ennui and various other weird psychic spaces? And that also included kittens? Hmm?

Go on, then.
