Again, sorry about lack of replies, flu and insomnia has hit my house, HARD!

Back a few months ago, I told you about my little guest artist work I did for Superfogeys.
Remember?
It was for Brock’s back story called “The Audition” in Superfogeys Volume 4. Well, it is my happy duty to inform you that SF Book 4, is now shipping!! So, head on over and buy a copy at Th3rd World!
Here is (the Black and White) page 6, of my 7 page guest artist gig! It’s in full color, by the way! Thanks Brock, I had a blast doing this!

Just got the first batch of “Clovax” books last week, and you’re gonna love this book!
(Pictures below)
I’m super happy with how they turned out: glossy cover, 108 bright white pages, and a spine made of pure love! BTW — I’m currently working on the artist editions! Woot!
FYI — Some FAQ on the Imagine THIS books:
–When does “The Clovax” go on sale?
Monday, July 6, 2009. Mark your calenders!!
– Did you say the Argyle Sweater’s Scott Hilburn wrote the foreword? How the hell did you pull that off??
Let’s just say, Scott’s prized ficus will be returned, shortly.
What does “Clovax” mean?
It’s a parody of Dr. Seuss’ book “The Lorax.” Anyone who has read that book knows that Clovis is the polar opposite of the Lorax (which was referenced in “Imagine THIS” #300).
– Will you have “The Clovax” at the San Diego Comic Con?
Hell, to the yeah! As well as original art, AND free stuff too! Hope to see you there! BTW — I’m thinking of printing “Clovax” and “Clovisfield” posters for the con. What say you?
– Speaking of “Clovisfield,” are you going to reprint that book?
Nope. It was a promo book only and not really meant to exist as a “First Book.” When they sold-out last year, that was it! However, if you own a copy, keep it! The demand for this book has been surprisingly high, so putting it on Ebay in a few years might be a good thing for you!
– Does “The Clovax” have all the same material that was in “Clovisfield”?
Not all, just the good stuff. But remember, “Clovisfield” only covered the first 4 months of the strip, “The Clovax” covers 12 months worth of material.
–Are you going to ONLY sell Artist Editions?
Nope. Regular editions will also be for sale too!
Who put the “bop” in the bop-she-bop-she-bop?
Gerry Goffin. Or, Satan.

And for those of you who were able to purchase “Clovisfield” last year, “The Clovax” makes a great companion!
Here’s a sneak peek at the VERY FIRST Imagine THIS book, “The Clovax”! Yes indeed, the cover is a parody of that Seuss classic, the “Lorax.”

This bad boy is 108 pages of pure magic! It covers the strip from its humble beginnings on Comics Sherpa, to its polished, craptacular, GoComics.com awesomeness! I’ve decided (at the last minute) to include the Dewey’s Adventure story from the SOLD OUT promo book “Clovisfield” (a Fan Fav!).
The Foreward is by the one and only, Scott Hilburn of the Argyle Sweater!
Tentative release date: July 6th! Yes, you will be able to purchase through PayPal. And yes, I will have them at the San Diego Comic Con!
Cheers friends! I know you’ll enjoy this book! More details soon!
Well, Tom Racine of Tall Tale Radio and I just returned from National Cartoonist Society’s 2009 Reuben awards. While we didn’t stay for the awards banquet, we did have a great day of schmoozing cartoonists and editors!
We met up with Tall Tale Features very own Norm Feuti of Gill and Retail, John Hambrock of the wonderful toon “The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee” and his lovely wife Anne. Tom and I took them to the best fast food burger joint, EVER, In-And-Out.
We also met and chatted with Stephan Pastis, Mark Tatulli, Chad Carpenter, Dave Coverly, Mike Luchovich, Amy Lago, and on and on! I’ll have pictures to post soon!!
As a result of all this, and the holiday, Monday and Tuesday will feature best of strips. I know, I know, reruns. But have no fear, the all-new storyline madness continues, Wednesday! And expect dish and (hopefully) photos from the event!
Cheers!!
