Black Comix: The perfect gift for your comics-loving sweetheart.*

[SinglePic not found]

Get Black Comix: African American Independent Comics, Art and Culture from here ** or schlep your lazy ass to the nearest bookery (if they’re cool, they’ll have it). It’s 175 pages of hardcover goodness from, and about, some of the best artists out there.

And the best part is not only am I profiled in the book, but I have a little illo on the bottom left corner of the cover.

See the Black Comix blog for more info.

*Not recommended for lonely racists.

**although you won’t get it shipped by Valentine’s Day, it should arrive by February 19th for Valenteen’s Day, a holiday I just invented.

Obamtourage

Speaking of Obama, long-time pal Marcus Bishop-Wright (previously seen in Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre, Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Chappelle’s Show) has a side gig portraying the Prez in a series of online sketches.

The most recent is a mash-up of Obama’s superstar status and  HBO’s stoner/Hollywood dude show ‘Entourage’.

Coming Soon: Stuff I’ve done (finally!) and stuff I’m about to do (guh?!)

Happy Halloween ’08!!

I love this holiday, especially in NYC. You get to see how creative and/or slutty New Yorkers can be (“Hey look, it’s Sexy Werewolf!!”).

Since Mikhaela and I missed Halloween ‘07 (we were at ‘Day of the Dead’ in Mexico), we really want to do it up this year. As a special Election ’08 bonus, I’m going to keep a tally of how many Obamas, McCains, Bidens and Palins I see…until I get drunk or bored. My money is on a plethora of porn-y Palins and zombie McCains.

Oh yeah: for all you basic cable fans, I’m going as this guy.

P.S. If you’re going to a Halloween party, wear a freakin’ costume or keep your lame ass at home. Besides, if you’re single, you have a better chance of getting costumed booty if you get into the inherently hedonistic spirit of the holiday with your own outfit.
