Albatross Funnybooks ALBATROSS EXPLODING FUNNYBOOKS launched in 2002 by cartoonist Eric Powell. Like his all ages comic CHIMICHANGA and Rebecca Sugar’s PUG DAVIS.

In 2002 Eisner Award winning cartoonist Eric Powell launched ALBATROSS EXPLODING FUNNYBOOKS in an effort to keep his series THE GOON alive when no other publisher wanted it because it was too “different”.
