*(TH)INK BOOK RELEASE RE-CAP..

Thanks to everyone for coming out last Sunday for my slideshow at Revolution Books.  When I rolled up at 2:50pm, there was absolutely nobody in the store.  Half hour later, all seats were filled.

It was especially nice to see fellow cartoonist and writer Tom Gammill in the house. I met Tom at the National Cartoonist Society’s annual convention when I crashed it in downtown L.A. He makes funny videos about cartoonists:

Also in the house was my man Srini from UnAmerican Activities. Srini used to run with the Marginal Prophets crew back when I lived in San Francisco.

Anyhoo…I incorporated a lot of new stuff into the slideshow, and folks snatched up a whole lotta books and prints…  especially the large print of my Gil Scott-Heron piece. The store asked me to bring more by to sell.
