“You’ve Got to Stop This” arrives in the grand diary-comix tradition of zines like “You Don’t Get There From Here”, “Snakepit”, and “King Cat” (in fact, I suspect that the format of YGTST’s covers might draw inspiration from the monarchical feline – a homage that feels like a calling card for fellow autobiographical diy comix fans.) Written and doodled by Phoebe Ward, the series explores a variety of topics through 1-page comix, most revolving around Phoebe’s life as a student in the dorms of Carleton University. These collegiate snapshots – see “Study Spots”, “Campus Announcements” and “Views from Davis 106” – are probably best enjoyed by fellow students, but when Ward leaves campus is when these comix really shine. Issue 3’s “Reflections” is a stand-out – absurdist and clever – and I appreciated the “Objects of the Week” feature that starts Issues 1 and 2. It’ll be interesting to see how “You’ve Got to Stop This” grows and changes over time – I think that most autobiographical diy comix only get better with age and additional issues, and I’d love to see the shape this zine takes post-graduation.
