Praise for Thrizzle Volume 1 has been coming from a most unexpected quarter… the press! This weekend sees the New York Times Book Review calling it “demented, gaspingly funny…”

And The Onion has just selected it as one of the 25 best “graphic novels” of the last decade.

‘Tis a good blurb harvest this year. The blurbiest!
I will be at the Strand bookstore next Tuesday, August 18th, from 7-8 pm. I will be signing, and also doing a presentation of some of my comics, including “Hercules Vs. Zeus” from Nickelodeon magazine, which is in 3-D, glasses provided. Exciting!
The Strand, of course, is located at 12th Street and Broadway on the wonderful island of Manhattan.
This Friday, July 10th, 7-9, Desert Island in Williamsburg will host a party for the official publishment of the book Tales Designed to Thrizzle Volume 1. Here is the link to the store’s website: DESERT ISLAND

Thanks Fantagraphics! I’m excited, it turned out nice!
Advance copies have just arrived in the mail: Thrizzle Volume 1, The Book, (available in July). I have to say, it is quite an attractive object! Fantagraphics now has it available for pre-order on their website: Fantagraphics Books – Tales Designed to Thrizzle Vol. 1 [Pre-Order]
…with the Thrizzle book, never been so tired. Still, it all looks nice in color I think.
