Bears do it with their sensitive lips and tongues. We human foragers tend to use our fingertips, but I've been known to get on all fours and do it like a bear, just for the experience. A bear strips blueberries from their branches, purple and green alike, inhaling as many as 30,000 in a day.

Celebrating the Twentieth Anniversary of The King-Cat ZineMap of My Heart celebrates the twentieth anniversary of John Porcellino's seminal and influential comics zine, King-Cat Comics and Stories , which he started self-publishing in 1989. In this collection, while Porcellino is living in isolation and experiencing the pain of divorce, he crafts a melancholic, tender graphic-ballad of heartbreak and reflection.Known for his sad, quiet honesty, rendered in his signature deceptively minimalist style, Porcellino has a command of graphic storytelling as sophisticated as the medium's more visually intricate masters. Few other artists are able to so expertly contemplate the sadness, beauty, and wonder of life in so few lines.
