Today Skybound and Image Comics announced Mr. Lovenstein Presents: Feelings, the upcoming collection of Mr. Lovenstein comics from webcomics superstar J.L. Westover that celebrates feelings in all forms. He helped us accept our failures in the Eisner Award-nominated OGN Mr. Lovenstein Presents: Failure, and now he’s going to help us feel our feelings when this hardcover hits comic book stores on September 17, 2024.
Massively popular webcomics author J.L. Westover follows up his Eisner-nominated debut by taking readers on a rollercoaster of emotions in Mr. Lovenstein Presents: Feelings. This brand-new hardcover collects over 200 pages of fan favorite Mr. Lovenstein comics, along with brand new, book exclusive comics.
“This is a collection of my funniest comics with all the feels,” said creator J.L. Westover. “My goal was to help people get in touch with their feelings. All of them: Joy, Sadness, Rage, Love, Anxiety, and Horny. I even invented new emotions like horngry. I can’t wait for the world to feel feelings like they’ve never felt feelings before.”
Get ready to catch feelings in this brand-new collection of Mr. Lovenstein comics, including exclusive never-before-seen comics that can’t be found anywhere else. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll wonder if the tingling sensation in your stomach are butterflies…or something…else…!
