Glimpse of the Shojo X-Men Book

Submitted by dave_roman on August 4, 2008 - 08:14

It looks like the Amazon page for the Shojo X-men book (co-written with Raina) has a Amazon.com listing with a cover image!  (not sure if this is the 100% final version.)

Which means that you can pre-order it if you are so inclined!

COMICON 2008 ... in which I was there and saw things and it was awesome

Here we go, the Comicon Report. Lets see if I can wrap this up in under three million words.

(Me at the SLG booth, beside me is Karl Krumpholtz, who does the SLG book Byron. Picture taken by my roommate [info]crzydemona.)

Gotta any plans for next week?

I will be all over the San Diego Comic Con! Here's where to look:

Base of Operations: The Comics Bakery
P2, in the Small Press section. That lines up with aisle 1900, at the very edge of Small Press, so we should be pretty easy to find! Look for the Comics Bakery banner! Also tabling there are fan-favorites like Raina Telgemeier, John Green and Marion Vitus.

Hi, blog!

I haven't been on here much of late. I am working on a bunch of stuff but can't really talk about any of it yet. I've also been afforded a break in my schedule for a few weeks, so I've been doing things like seeing movies and going to concerts and cleaning my apartment and hanging out with people. It's been great!

Dave, this webcomic can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

A moment of silence for the passing of a great writer and visionary: Arthur C. Clarke.  I can still remember picking up books from him and Ray Bradbury at a very young age (7?) and while not completely understanding everything I read, being overwhelmed by the sense of imagination, and of possibility.  I think my favorite Clarke novel was/is Rendezvous With Rama in part because it was a great fit for me when I read it (middle school I recall) but also for the sweep of it.
