Our buddy Mike Houston, who did the Tokyo Ramen Gods waaaay back in Issue 1, just inked up new series of ramen posters. They’re limited edition woodcuts, never reprinted, $20 a pop. Good stuff! Cop ‘em here before they’re gone.
so dope.
The sweet illustrations in the Caga Tió segment from last night’s Holiday Special were done by Mike Houston (ZPZ/Cannonball Press). Check out more of his work here.
New ZPZ stickers designed by Mike Houston (Zero Point Zero/Cannonball Press) !
If you’ve picked up a copy of the Lucky Peach: Ramen issue, you’ll recognize these ’Ramen Gods’. These original illustrations woodcut/letterpress prints by the insanely talented Mike Houston (Cannonball Press/ZPZ) are now on sale for 20 bucks a pop. It almost maddening they are that cheap cause these prints look ridiculous in person. Yes, I may be biased but they are really that damn good.
Thank you to all our amazing fans for helping us reach 1 million on facebook.
