I will be showing originals of my comics at Rocketship Comics (208 Smith Street, Brooklyn, New York 718.797.1348) http://rocketshipstore.blogspot.com/

come to the party!!

The Second annual CARTOON BROOKLYN gallery show! This year’s cartoonists in the Borough of Kings are the Amazing Aaron Renier, Jazzy Jim Campbell, the Sensational Sara Varon, and the Uncanny Gabrielle Bell! Eight PM, Saturday Night! July 29th!

Thanks for all the people who supported me in San Francisco at the Alternative Press Expo. (sorry I forgot to mention my appearance here before. If you meant to but didnt pick up a copy of Krachmacher 2, you can get it now online! Krachmacher 2 is available here if you only want one, or at wholesale price for retailers here. You can also get some other items like the Paper Fleet 7inch and ottomen albums.

Paper Fleet, my band, just released a 7? record, and it has a 4 page comic in it by myself. It’s available now at the ottoshop warehouse

Thanks for everybody
who bought my books at spx. I had a great time hanging out with Dash,
Jeffro and Karl Stevens, and met a bunch more cool people. too many
to mention. I have updated the comix
and store sections
of my site so you can buy
your copies of Krachamacher 2 now!

I will be at SPX
on september 23rd through the 25th signing at the Alternative Comics
table. It’s in Bethesda Maryland, a suburb of D.C. and can be easily
reached via the DC subway system… so if you will be in town for the
“March
on Washington”
like my friend Mike
Herring
will be (he did some of the dialogue in my first Krachmacher)
stop by. BECAUSE, my new book
will be out!! (More Info Soon)

Its not full color this time, but it’s good anyways. This book won’t be available in most stores , so pick up a copy at the convention, or Ill have them available here soon!

Hey you should go out and buy the most recent Compilation of Maakies comics: “Der Struwwelmaakies”. See if you can spot the strip on which I sustituted for Mr. Millionaire while he was otherwise engaged in having his intestine operated upon.

I’ll be at MoCCA
signing Krachmacher at the Alternative or meathaus tables. This is the
first time the book has been available at MoCCA. I’m done with issue
2 and will have a preview there but I still gotta find a publisher.
ANY OFFERS! ha!
