Hi sticky people! Have you seen the new and improved Ten East Read store? If not, check it out!

Ten East Read is the “official” and exclusive online store featuring sticky comics merchandise that I designed (and mostly made by hand) based on my original cartoon art. All our t-shirts and other textiles were screenprinted by me and a couple other friends. Our items are all limited edition so if you want any of of it you may want to order soon …

The latest sticky comics item we added is Steampunk Mr. Peanut t-shirt, but the Happy As A Clam t-shirt and Jellyfish stuff are still available too. I also have still have some sticky comics stickers based on cartoons from the site. So if any of that stuff sounds cool, go check it out.

And in case you were wondering, buying stuff and telling your friends is a pretty good way to help support my site and keep it going. Thanks guys

Hi sticky pals! I’m now more or less recovered from the very good time I had at ConnectiCon in Hartford, CT last weekend. The con is mostly focused on anime, cosplay, gaming, webcomics, and other crazy stuff, so there were a TON of people having a very good time, and often more than half the crowd was in costume. Some of my favorites were the steampunk outfits, zombies, and Silent Hill costumes, although almost everyone wearing anime ears was totally adorable. There were so many cool people there in general. Good vibes all around.

I was a webcomics guest at the event and had a table in the artists colony. I was giving out free sticky comics postcards, which I ran out of early on Saturday, and selling sticky comics merchandise. We launched two new items last week before the con: The Steampunk Mr. Peanut t-shirt and the new Brass Goggles Neckerchief, both of which are kinda steampunky things that we designed and screeenprinted ourselves. I sold a lot of merchandise and am almost out of Jellyfish tees and tote bags now. It was badass meeting so many other people who love jellyfish. (Not being stung by jellyfish, just their mysterious jelly ways.)

One of the best things about ConnectiCon is how much fun the webcomics people have there. I got to hang out (and drink beer in rather large quantities) with a lot of great webcomics people. Here is a list that took me many hours of sobriety to remember: read more >

Hi sticky friends! In just two weeks I’m taking this crazy show on the road again to ConnectiCon in Hartford, CT. I’ll have a table in the Artist’s Colony and will be hanging out selling some handmade sticky comics merchandise and prints. I would love to see you there! Meeting people in real life is awesome, and since I’ve heard a lot of rad things about this convention, I’m basically expecting to have a three day party there.

I also have scheduled appearances in August and September, so here’s a list of all three:

• July 9-11, 2010: ConnectiCon, Hartford, CT. ConnectiCon is a fun convention for anime, gaming, comics, and other exciting things!
• August 8, 2010: Philadelphia Alternative Comic Con (PACC), Philadelphia, PA. The Philly Alt Comic Con is going to feature alternative artists including webcomics, small press, and zine-sters. Great indie event. One day only.
• September 10-12, 2010: Intervention, Rockville, MD. Intervention is an event centered on webcomic artists, which I’m hearing will be an all-day, all-night, 3-day party. I’ll be an exhibitor, panelist, and professional party person there.

PS: I’ve heard that both ConnectiCon and Intervention may sell out, so if you can make it, go buy your tickets now! Really hope to see you there.
