That's right, this blog is becoming a book! Just in case you wanted to pay for what you're doing for free right now. These are the proofs hot off the presses from Edition One Books, who printed my friend Dani's book, Round Robin. I'll be doing a limited run of 200 copies, available exclusively at Trickster.
For those of you who haven't heard about it, Trickster is an art gallery and retail space specializing in creator-owned wares including small run and limited edition books, fine art prints, toys, clothing, etc.
As you can see, Trickster is located directly across the street from Comic Con at the SD Wine and Culinary Center, and will be open late into the night after the Con has closed. So you can finally have a drink with that Leia in the gold bikini that you lost in the Hall H crowd.
Other Trickster exclusives include the official Trickster compendium (cover by the incomparable Mike Mignola):
The book features art from professional animators, comic artists, and illustrators, all contributing their take on the "trickster" theme. I examined the hoax-trickster in my piece, "The Boy Who Cried Nessy".
Finally, making it's debut at Trickster will be the loooong-awaited Afterworks 3 (cover by the astounding Lou Romano).
Which will feature my short story, Terrordactyl:
Afterworks 3 will be hitting comic stores everywhere in August, but the Trickster and Austin Translation books will be limited run Trickster event exclusives, so make sure to swing by San Diego and pick up your copy!
I'll be there Friday and Saturday, but Trickster is open Tuesday July 19th to Sunday July 24th. So stop by and say howdy!

My friend Jeff posted this on facebook, and I just had to share.
Todd insisted on sharing a booth, and who am I to say no to the creator of Spawn?

For those not attending, where can we pick up copies of all these awesome books (especially Afterworks 3)?
Thanks for the reminder, I just added that info to the post.
The Trickster and Austin Translation books are Trickster exclusives, though if I have any copies left over, I'll sell them here on my blog.
The good news is Afterworks 3 will be hitting comic stores everywhere in August. So visit your local shop now and make sure they order a copy!
Grazie!
Pixar is not working you hard enough. You've got entirely too many personal projects in the works.
Lookin' forward to checking these books out in a few weeks!
I hope i can buy all 3 books online soon. Congrats :)
I'm excited about all of these books! And I'm looking forward to Comic Con and Trickster!
The books sound so cool. Congrats that they will be available so soon.
Also, have a good time getting Con-ed in my old SD stomping grounds.
