I had a devil of a time with this page because my brain is still pudding from having had Covid-19 in December. I considered delaying it again, but Italian-born Franco-Belgian (is that Italo-Franco-Belgian?) comic artist Dino Attanasio passed away last weekend, age 100. Dino always delivered on time and I feared that if I delayed this page, his ghost would haunt me for the rest of my life.

Greyfriar’s Isle is a comic about an island and the people who live there. A small family runs Marsh Light, a naturist campsite connected to the beach where locals and tourists spend their vacation time. The island is historically friendly to naturism, but not universally so. Also, there are ghosts and strange, eldritch island customs.
Greyfriar’s Isle is inspired by the comics I read in my youth, by the real-world island experiences I had in my youth, my ideas about what naturism should be and the stories naturists tell each other about themselves.
New episodes come out on the first and third Wednesday of every month! 🪐
