SPX... Better Late Than Never

L to R, Spencer Hansen of Team8press and popidiot, myself, Patrick Godfrey of Velocity Comics and OddGod Press and Jesse Bausch, also of OddGod, Peeking over the mini's.


L to R, Patrick and a more complete shot of Jesse, who looks quite excited to be at the show.



We attended SPX A few weekends ago and even though it's primarily a show for alternative comics the good people who run it saw fit to let us participate. To be honest we did have some comics on display. If you're at all familiar with our site you probably know by now that every Tee comes with a comic hang tag. Because of it's small stature some people may dismiss it as a trifle, nothing more than a mere novelty which in fact it was intended to be. But if you'll allow us to blow our horn for a moment, the judges at the Society of Illustrators found it compelling enough to include it in their 49th annual of that years best illustration and in the sequential category no less. So you could look at it as every time you purchase one of our award winning popidiot mini-comics you get a cool T-shirt, not a bad deal. We also had a couple of hand made mini's as well as Project Romantic from AdHouse Press which I was honored to have a short strip in. So we had our comic bases covered and yet somehow we still sold more Tees than comics... weird.

As expected we also meet some really cool people saw some old friends and got some cool loot but we'll post more about that soon. In the meantime enjoy the pics of the the popidiot / Team8press table/s.
