Lil preview of the ~*~2 new comics~*~ I’ll be selling at MoCCA this weekend, April 1st and 2nd! Image #1 is the first page from is x/2+7, a timeless tale about why you should maybe date people your own age? And image #2 is a few panels from Incompatible, an autobio about dating through the zodiac that I will otherwise absolutely never be posting on the Internet hahahahahahahaha
I’ll at the CCS table, Table A122, with Best Cartoonists Robyn Smith & Dan Nott. K. L. Ricks will be giving portfolio reviews. Drop in, I’m psyched to see ya!
Read “Remember the Internet?” from Mary Shyne.
Wrote about my early-Internet nostalgia for the Nib last Friday.
If you’re in Austin, drop by this SXSW-showcase-to-end-all-showcases tonight! Did this poster dreaming of warmer climates from frozen Vermont. Thanks to Gab, Scott and James for this one.
Did a mural in the green room of Shea Stadium last weekend. The band names will be missed, but hopefully this will give bands some sense of zen between sets?
Edit: this morning, Shea announced they’re temporarily closing their doors. Please keep your eye on their Facebook page in case any opportunities pop up for support – Brooklyn and music in general need spaces like this.
Edit 2: Shea has a Kickstarter going to make themselves an official venue! Keep giving ‘em money ‘till the end of time.
Today you can finally listen to Vagabon’s Infinite Worlds anywhere you want – which is great, because this kind of audio therapy needs to be universally available. There’s also a release show tonight at Baby’s if you’re in Brooklyn; if you can’t make it out, at least read Laetitia’s interview here.
March second kicks off Vagabon’s tour; one of the best aspect of doing tour posters for Laetitia (of which I’ve been lucky enough to do a few) is the complete trust she grants me to do whatever I want artistically. In this case, it was a rendering of the interior of St. John the Divine.
Wednesday night, flyer night. Here’s a few I’ve done in the past few months – the first for the incomparable Vagabon for her release show for Infinite Worlds at Baby’s on February 24th. (Have you seen The Embers video? Prepare to weep.)
Second is for a show that sadly never happened because our dear Cake Shop was laid to rest. :( That DEFINITELY doesn’t mean you shouldn’t check out Patti Harrison reviewing exotic animals or Band Practice’s comedy split with Catherine Cohen.
Third is for a show at the also-RIP’d Elvis Guesthouse.
