Southern Fried is an endearing look at life in Morristown, Tennessee. Jerry Smith (Rattletrap, Meat zine) draws vignette-like comics about enjoying Father's Day, helping his son understand death, the significance of music when growing up poor, draining factory work and more. He weaves together his past and present expertly. You can see how his childhood hobbies have evolved into lifelong passions, and it is exciting to see how his sons have taken an interest in similar things, like illustration. These tales convey a genuine Southern warmth and humor, all the while remaining universal and familiar.
