\"Noah
\nNYC-based NOAH LYON – aka RETARD RIOT – had a booth at the recent BROOKLYN COMICS and GRAPHICS FESTIVAL.
\nSat, Dec 5, 2009. Williamsburg.<\/p>\n

\"Noah
\nhe makes tiny hand-made, very low-fi black and white comic books – but he presents them in a very arresting way – in plexiglass boxes !! Noah is someone who straddles that fine line between fine artist and comic book artist.<\/p>\n

\"Noah
\nhe also makes T-shirts – that speak for themselves, duh.
\nall of his work – is a commentary.<\/p>\n

\"noah
\nhe also makes buttons. tons of them.<\/p>\n

\"noah
\nhis most recent publication is a collaboration with MATT LEINES – this is very interesting. for 2 reasons.
\none: they both straddle that fine line between art and comics.
\ntwo: they are almost polar opposites !! Matt is very detail-oriented and obsessive, whereas Noah is: scribble it out, turn it upside and tear the world apart. Matt Leines never uses words and Noah is pretty much all about words, or at least thoughts.
\nMatt is introspective and Noah is extroverted. Matt cannot abide to have his photo taken, and Noah loves to grandstand !!
\nin this front cover, the face is pretty much all Matt Leines, the guest. but. the curly multi-eyeballs forehead – is all Noah !!
\nby the way the book is all of 2-1\/2 x 4 in. !!
\n8 pages altogether including the cover. LOW-FI – YES !! DIY – YES !!
\nsmall package – big message – great art – YES !!<\/p>\n

\"noah
\nlittle creative acts add up. little creative acts can be very revealing. little books can tell big stories.
\nif only little creative acts could change the world.
\nand yes, Noah was sweet enough to inscribe this one to me . . .<\/p>\n

\"noah
\nso can you tell the NOAH from the MATT ?!!
\nhint: any Matt Leines fan – could tell you in a nanosecond – the tale of the tiger is Matt.
\nthe polar opposite clash and mesh !! – is all Noah.<\/p>\n

\"noah
\nNoah’s messages are always – right on point !!
\nunfortunately for where we are all heading, or is that beheading ?!!
\nplus – I also like long knives !! <\/p>\n

\"noah
\nso this is the back cover.
\nso clueless – where’s MATT ?
\nit’s all in the eyes.<\/p>\n
