Home safe and sound

Aug 21, 2006

Safely back from Minnesota. I managed not to have out right hysterics on the plane, or even cry. Bully for me. We had between two and three hundred people. Not sure. I know it was under four hundred, and over two hundred, but other than that I’m a little fuzzy. You know how I wear the dark glasses when you guys take flash pictures of me? Well, I hadn’t had a full blown migraine in a while, so I thought maybe I’ve gotten over it. So a few people took flash pictures while I was signing without me putting on the glasses. Jon and I usually police it better, but we just didn’t. So I got a full-blown migraine in the middle of the signing. The dark glasses came out and stayed on. Anyone who took the flash pictures don’t worry about it. Not your fault. We just didn’t police it well enough. From now on, we’ll have to. It was way, way unpleasant to have the migraine while still in a public event. We toughed it out, and did the whole signing, then fled to the hotel room and closed all the drapes. Even that wasn’t dark enough. It’s one of the reasons we carry blind folds with us. I used one that afternoon, or early evening, whatever. It was great seeing everyone, and those who didn’t come missed the super secret black and white edition of the GUILTY PLEASURES comic. My understanding is that the comics that were at, or are at, Source Comics, are all there will ever be. The next time you see this comic it will be full color and so the few hundred comics at the store are all there is of this print run. The store has a few left, so if you want one, go get it now, or call them, because honest, no joke, that’s it. The next time you see the comic it will be colored and done up, and it will be October. Thanks everyone who came out to see us.
