A comic about the Irish city of Limerick

Limerick Live talks about a new comic that documents the history of the city:
AUTHOR Hugh McMahon has launched his new comic book - one inspired by the humour of his city.

Hugh’s new book, Limerink: Limerick City in Words and Pictures, documents the life and culture of Limerick city through a 48-page hand drawn comic book.

[...] Several familiar Limerick landmarks and street scenes feature including the pubs, bridges, churches bridges, sports fields and markets.

The comic is full of cartoons and illustrations documenting the colourful speech, sayings and proverbs heard every day, all over the city.

Sport, fashion, food, work, family, religion, weather, money and love are all explored in words and pictures throughout the comic book.
This sounds impressive, and I'm sure it'll offer a lot more than most mainstream USA comics do on these subjects.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
