Mauretania Comics
Encyclopedia
Mauretania Comics was an independent comics anthology published by Paul Harvey
and Chris Reynolds. Reynolds' main character was the mysterious Monitor, a strange helmeted figure, while Harvey's was the more blatant Mincer. The stories were mainly quiet, distant pieces, as if peering into other people's lives. A Chris Reynlds graphic novel
simply entitled Mauretania came out by Penguin Books
in 1990. Though an original story made up the bulk of the volume, Mauretania also reprinted several Reynolds' short stories from Mauretania Comics. Harvey is now one of the Stuckist painters.
