Fail Faster Forever

Tom recently finished drawing a 500 page graphic novel. He drew the entire thing in the time between May 4th, 2008 and September 23, 2008. Which is absolutely insane. I snagged a copy from him at SPX a couple weeks ago. I haven't finished reading it yet, but it's been a wild ride so far.

You can purchase copies of the book here. You can read some explanation of the book from Tom here.

Phil McAndrew and Ira Marcks in You Ain't No Dancer 3

From Ed Brisson at New Reliable Press:

New format! The third volume of You Ain’t No Dancer anthology goes themeless.

Now listing in Previews. Please ask your comic shop to order it up and spread the word around. This book will be debuting at SPX, where a bunch of the contributors will be in attendance.

I will be posting more info, including previews from the book over the next couple of weeks.

I’m sure that I’m biased, but I really feel that this is probably the strongest of the 3 YAND books. Really solid contributions from a lot of great folks.
