The Secret (preview)

What blasphemous wackiness ensues in the next 2 pages? I think you will need to acquire the forthcoming 5th issue of Always Comix to find out!

I think I should have drawn a background for that first panel – ah, deadlines. The first panel of page 2 has a background…

Beach Hum preview

Here’s a sample panel of a one page comic I submitted to the Always Comix “Activity” issue. I sent it in at the very last minute and haven’t heard back, so I’m not sure if I made it in; if I didn’t, I’ll post the whole thing later. If you’d like to see the whole thing, you can buy it from the Always Comix folk at SPX, or right after that at the Philly Zine Fest. I won’t be at SPX (sad!), but I will be at the Philly Zine Fest. I will also have a table at the Winchester Pickle Festival September 27, so you should come check that out; just be careful not to get pickle juice on the comics.

Apple Rant (preview)

Here is the first of four pages I contributed to Trees & Hills‘ forthcoming food-themed anthology, Seeds.

Later I shout less, there is a big fire, and we learn a little about the wonders of industrial agriculture. Seeds debuts September 20 at the Boston Zine Fair, and is not only full of cool comics, but also comes with a recipe booklet and actual organic vegetable seeds for planting!

“A Night In The Studio” preview

Here is the first page of my contribution to Swingin’ Hits. How does the rest of Keith’s recording process go? I guess you’ll have to buy the comic to find out – luckily it comes with lots of other good comics, and a CD to boot!

Cupcake Fate

Here is a sample of “Cupcake Fate”, the 1-page, 48-panel multi-path comic I submitted for Secrets & Lies. Where will it all lead?

Secrets & Lies debuts at MoCCA June 7 & 8, but you can (and should) get a copy early by attending the release party 8pm May 31 at the Main Street Museum, 58 Bridge Street in White River Junction, VT. The same party celebrates the release of Colleen FrakesTragic Relief book, which should quell any doubts you may have about going. I plan to go, and so should you!

Earlier that day, I will be tabling at Broke: The Affordable Art Fair in Peterborough, NH’s Town Hall (1 Grove St.) from 10am to 4pm. The fair intends to promote innovative, affordable art outside of the traditional gallery system. It is part of the “Thing In The Spring” 3-day arts event, which will also feature concerts, movies, and more.

The weekend after that, I’ll be tabling at MoCCA in NYC, where Trees & Hills will debut its Swingin’ Hits music-themed anthology (I have a comic in it and a piece of music on the bonus CD). I should have a new minicomic out in time for either Broke or MoCCA. Whew! After that, things should quiet down for a while.
