Afonso Cortez, Marcos Farrajota - Corta-e-Cola / Punk Comix

Based on an exhaustive survey of fanzines, records and demo tapes, this book dives deep into the graphic production of the punk movement, uncovering untold stories of anarchy, activism, and underground creativity.

Across 256 pages, the authors explore the chaotic visual (non-)aesthetic and the do-it-yourself ethos that defined punk culture, touching on themes like squatting, animal rights, record piracy, political protests, and of course — loud gigs, drugs, and wild nights. Richly illustrated with hundreds of images — record sleeves, fanzine pages, posters, comic strips, flyers and other rare visual material — Corta-e-Cola / Punk Comix is both a visual journey and a critical document of the punk underground. This new edition updates the original 2017 release with revised content and new afterwords. It does not include the Punk Comix CD or the original split-book format. Featuring an entirely new cover designed by the crew at Disgraça, all profits from this reissue go directly to support the space. True DIY spirit.
