The Web-Comics Auction for the Gulf Coast is underway and you can now bid on my ink-wash “Deepwater” drawing! All proceeds from the auction benefit the Colbert Nation Gulf of America Fund. This is the first time any of my original art has been available for purchase and it is for a good and necessary cause. You can place your bid at this link and also see the other items in the auction here.
BOSTON: This Sunday, June 27, I will be at MassMarket 6, a “DIY flea market” at the Pozen Center at MassArt. There will be a bunch of artists, artisans, musicians, bakers, and, um, cartoonists? Maybe? I dunno. I’m a cartoonist and I’ll be there, trying not to look terribly out of place. Sunday, 11 to 5pm, admission is $1 to benefit the AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts. It is like a very hip version of your town’s annual craft fair. Come check it out!
The third volume of Herman the Manatee comics is now available in the store! Get re-introduced to Knuckles the Narwhal and Self-Loathing Lester! Revisit their astonishing jailbreak attempt! Scratch your head at Herman’s unlikely and inexplicable friendship with a neutrino! It’s all here and it’s all just $3.
Hello to everyone I met at MeCAF! We loved Portland and it was great to see so many little kids excited about comics. Let’s hope my books do not send them into depression. Thanks also to those who drew in our little LOST sketchbook!
In three weeks, I will be exhibiting at the Maine Comics Arts Festival in Portland, ME! Last year, MeCAF hit the ground running and everyone expects an even better event this year. I’m hardly ever able to go to panels at these things, so it’s nice to see that they have put scheduled the show itself on a different day. Saturday, May 22 at the Portland Public Library are the free panels, then Sunday is the fair at the waterfront, from 10-5 with a $5 admission. If, like me, you are one of the poor souls not going to TCAF, this is your opportunity to attend something that sort of sounds like it.
I’ll be debuting the third minicomic collection of Herman the Manatee strips, which features a chilling critique of America’s prison system. Also a manatee in drag.
So come! It should be a lot of fun and if you live in New England, this is our show!
