 FIRST EVER CHICAGO ALTERNATIVE KOMIX EXPLOSION!!

laura park made this image!

I'm finishing up Hot Dog Beach 2 FOR CAKE! It's exciting! Every panel looks like a bunch of comic styles put in a blender and then barfed out, in a good way? Hot Dog Beach 2 has compassionate machines, angry bosses, disenchanted slacker types, giant robots, hired hit men, nude assasins...it's your regular fox prime time trash.

I'm doing it for CAKE! GIVE ME CAKE!   Does anyone read this blog? meh

DO IT!

Cake needs moolah to feed the explosion, for $25 bux you get a t-shirt and other shwaggy,
I got a t-shirt so I can wear it till it gets really gross, and then keep wearing it. "My that's a fancy piece of trash around your neck!" "Why thank you, this is my chicago awesome komix explosion shirt from 2012"


 AAAAAAAND! I'M ON A PANEL! ( I'm pretty sure) called the VIOLENT LINE!! with a bunch of other far more experienced and talented artists such as :
