69 Love Songs, Illustrated is a joint effort by a varied and loose collection of comic-artists, illustrators and writers, who have grown up listening to the Magnetic Fields and got together over a mutual love of the songs. All work is copyright of its artist, all interpretations are the individual artist’s own, and all words are copyright The Magnetic Fields.
Enjoy!

I really enjoyed this work as a love comics and this MF´s album. I´m part of a independent group of people that publishes a comic magazine in Brazil for 14 years. We´re open to contributions, but we´ve got not much money to pay for the authors. If one of you have any interess of sending us some material, we are finishing a edition with the theme “women” for August/September, to be printed in beggining of October. Our homepage is http://www.graffiti76.com. We´ll be pleased if we have any contact from you. Congratulations.
