The many faces of Mike Holmes

Mike Holmes celebrates the 200th True Story in our comic section this week, says Holmes of the occasion,"Looking back on the 200 comic strips (and the subsequent book that collected the best of them), it feels like it took me almost 200 tries to come close to getting it right—and even now, it's constantly evolving," says Holmes. "It's definitely allowed me to work with some of the best storytellers Halifax (and then places beyond) has to offer, and I'm glad that I started drawing it, even though I had no idea what it was at the beginning. I'm very, very appreciative of everyone that donates a bit of their memories to this thing."
