Codex Seraphinianus as a cbz.

June 17, 2008

Alot of the traffic that I get here is from folks googling the Codex Seraphinianus, about which I posted a little more than a year ago.  The post was to a flickr set that has since gone dark.  However, you can download the codex as a cbz via torrent here.  You’ll need ComicBookLover or Comical or some goddamn thing to read it.

Lucid Interval by Cephalic Carnage

Organic Hallucinosis by Decapitated

Carnivorous Erection by Regurgitate

I dig ‘em, especially Cephallic Carnage. In the interests of full disclosure, I should mention that I mainly got Carniverous Erection because of the cover art (NSFW), but I can’t say as I regret it.

A nice web comic by Rosemary Mosco with many of my favorite cambrian critters. Bonus points for having the Opabinia’s name be Steve.
