Specimen 00 · The Lab Aperture ƒ/22

Sphincter Labs

An independent laboratory for native software, comics, research, and other things that probably shouldn’t work.

A small opening for very particular things.

02 — Comics

The
Press

Sphincter Labs publishes comics the way it builds software: independently, in small batches, with too much attention paid to the ink.
