Knight Moves
I’ve been super busy but I’ve managed to get enough strips done for TWKOP mini #3! You’ll see them posted in the upcoming weeks. The mini will debut at SPX 2010, taking place at The North Bethesda Marriott Convention Center September 11-12. I’ll be w/ my pals at the Our Friend The Atom table, stop by for some laughs.
MoCCA Fest 2010 is coming up April 10-11! Aaron, Phil, McMurray & myself will be manning the Our Friend The Atom table (#F15), scamming nerds out of their hard-earned $$$. No new mini but I will have some copies of Giant Size TWKOP #1 as well as TWKOP Mini #2, which debuted at SPX 2009. I do have new work for MoCCA in the form of an 8-page story in Phil’s Diarrhea Diaries #3. First time I used a pseudonym for a comic, & you’ll see why!
This year’s SPX (Small Press Expo) takes place this weekend in scenic Bethesda MD. TWKOP #2 is finished & printing as we speak! I’m looking forward to folding & stapling a bunch of copies of it over the next few days. It will be available at the Our Friend The Atom table, along w/ comics from my friends Aaron Delarosa, Mark McMurray, Ronnie Casson, Julie Behn & Corey Sauer! I’m so excited to see & hang out w/ everyone! There are a ton of comics I want to check out as well.
We are located at table D8, stop by & say hello!
Ryan Pequin’s Three Word Phrase contains some of the funniest, laugh out loud gags I’ve read in a long time!
MoCCA was hot but tremendous. Met a bunch of people, sold some books (although not as many as Phil) & got to hang out with my friends in NYC for three days. I got about five hours of sleep that weekend, and had to be at work at 8AM on Monday!
Since then I took a break from making comics, concentrating on getting my wrist & foot better for the summer. My wrist healed quickly but my foot was slow going & I was getting worried for a while. It’s at about 90% now & I was able to get back into running a few weeks ago. I had these awful images of me not being able to run or swim all summer. What a freaking relief.
SPX 09 is only two months away, crazy. My story for the postponed OFTA anthology is done (broken wrist & all, I was the only one who finished on time!) & I will be working hard to get the TWKOP mini #2 finished by then. I have a few copies of Giant-Size TWKOP #1 left that I’ll put up in the store soon.
