acronym time: S.P.A.C.E./W.Y.S.I.W.Y.G.
I'll be in Columbus Ohio this Saturday and Sunday for the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo (a.k.a. S.P.A.C.E.), selling THE CLAWS COME OUT along with a whole mess of minicomics and other goodies. Some other Pittsburgh cartoonists are making the trek as well, namely Tom Scioli and Jim Rugg (Saturday only). And I'm driving up with Ed Piskor, of "American Splendor" fame.
Ed's got a new book out that he's self-publishing and distributing all on his own, called "Wizzywig Vol. 1: Phreak" and I can't recommend it enough. It's a fictional story about a lonely and obsessive kid growing up in the 70's who becomes an infamous telephone hacker, but it's based on a lot of real people and events. It's fascinating stuff, the art is great, and I can't wait for the next volume. Check it out at the show, or at Ed's website: http://www.edpiskor.com/.
