His first mature work was a series called Pop Gun War about a little black boy with angel wings who flew around a fantasy version of Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. ![]() I don’t think he was still an ardent church goer by the time I met him, but I think that much like punk, Christianity is a great thing to experience but not get stuck in. After a few years of friendship he gave me a copy of his first published comic, a 3D Christian comic called Behold 3D. Farel grew up pretty seriously Christian and remained that way for at least a short time into his time as a New Yorker. He would sit behind the counter at Alt.Coffee drawing things and selling coffee to some of the oddest people I’ve ever known in a version of the neighborhood that hasn’t existed for at least fifteen years. He was this all American guy from Oklahoma with an eternally boyish face perched atop a tall man’s body. Farel worked the counter at Alt.Coffee in Manhattan’s East Village. I first met Farel Dalrymple back in 2001 when I was eighteen. ![]()
