Hey, guys!
I was just going over my schedule, and wow, it looks like I'm gonna have a pretty exciting summer.
First up, in a week and a half I'll be in San Diego, CA, for Comic-Con International. I'll be there with Shadowline in the Image section. I've got a signing set-up at six o'clock on Thursday the 23rd. If you're in town, stop by and say hi.
Shortly after that, I'll be flying out to West Palm Beach, FL, to compete in the National Poetry Slam. Poetry slam is a competition at which poets read or recite original work. These performances are then judged on a numeric scale by previously selected members of the audience. I've been selected to be one of Amarillo's four representatives at the competition.
To celebrate the summer -- and raise money for my trips -- I've added several packages to the store. Packages run from $10 (which has a copy of all the minicomics, some buttons and a sticker) to $50 (which inclues original artwork by a Li'l Depressed Boy artist). These packages have reduced shipping, so they are a great way to save a little money getting your LDB stuff. These packages will only stay up until the end of the month, so take advantage of them while you can.
Also added to the store is the third issue of the LDB minicomic. This issue features artwork by regular LDB artists Chris Fenoglio, Sina Grace, Zach Trover and Roman Muradov. Also included are guest appearances by Sam Kieth, Jim Mahfood and Jim Valentino. Numbering 20 pages, #3 covers the strips from November 14th, 2008 to April 29th, 2009. This is the biggest LDB minicomic, yet.
It's gonna be a great summer, guys.
