Bagri Maro and the Matacaballos


Bagri Maro is the hero of Tales of a Horse Scorpion, a series of novels by Raymond Lully. The setting of the novels is a future Earth where humans have become extinct and the world is dominated by five races of intelligent arthropods. Wm. Yost said he encountered the work of Raymond Lully in his early teens, when he saw the novels in a comic book, in a depiction of Dr. Strange's library by Steve Ditko.

According to the Myths of Crow


The singular nature of Yost’s creative energy impelled him to make numeous GLP comics inspired by the poems in the book Crow by Ted Hughes. It was nowhere near the obsession Yost had for “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, but it was a preoccupation that lasted several years in the late 80’s. His final Crow piece was this one, a visual poetry broadsheet combining six interrelated abstract comics in the Geranium Lake Properties format. (Made with the help of Bil Sabab, aka Volodymyr Bilyk, and Phil Openshaw, aka Phil Openshaw.)

A Tile From the Kitchen on Eleanor Avenue

Yost’s depiction of a tile from the kitchen floor of the Other Space Museum and Coffee House. Cardamom is the signature spice at the Coffee House. I can recommend the Latte for the Sky (cardamom and coconut milk).
