Dispatches from the road and air

I've been on the road on the second leg of the tour for a week and a half now, but have been too busy to post much. Here are some (pre)tour stories from my sketchbook:





So far I've been in Baltimore, Bethesda (at SPX), Pittsburgh, Philly, and, for the last four days, New York City. More about all the above to follow. Aside from a case of the famous Canadian cartoonist flu pandemic of 2011, it's been completely awesome. Being on the road with Marc Bell rules. That guy's awesome. Tonight I'll be in Providence at Ada Books. Below are a couple of photos from Pittsburgh. Bill at Copacetic put up a back issue wall for me to sign next to. It's all comics about birds. Awesome. Below that is a shot of people waiting for Marc and I to start.



Just to let people know...the Hardcover of the book has been a bit scarce and will be for another week or three. That said, both Copacetic and Brickbat managed to secure more than the usual allotment of copies (sworn to secrecy regarding their methods) so if you can't find one, you might contact them. Lastly, Gabriel at Desert Island in Brooklyn printed up this awesome little newsprint zine collecting a number of outtakes, thumbnails and other unpublished paraphernalia related to Big Questions. Along with the trading cards it's something of a tour exclusive for the moment. Below is the cover.

TOUR UPDATES

Found out yesterday that the awesome and amazing Souther Salazar is going to join Ron Rege and myself at the tour kick-off slide show reading event at Family in L.A. next Wednesday.


Also found out yesterday: we hooked up a Manhattan signing while in New York. Marc Bell and I will be a 192 Books in Chelsea on September 15th, the day before the Desert Island event in Brooklyn. Sweet.

The theme for the week is comics drawn on photographs of stuff


I recently did the cover for Smoke Signal 3. Smoke Signal is a comics paper that Gabriel Fowler of Desert Island in Brooklyn puts out. The issue debuts at the Brooklyn Comics Festival this weekend. If you're not going to be in New York you should be able to get one here.
