Come out on May 31st for the Nix Rock 'n roll Comics 15th Anniversary Release Party at Clintonville Books! clintonvillebooks.com/events/55028...

Morning soundtrack

Proofs! A few adjustments that I can see are needed and then the 15th anniversary books will go to print!

My morning soundtrack has a loose theme...

With the new comics in to the printer, I am piddling around with the idea of doing a collected edition of Tales from the Crate #s 1-4 (The first three are out of print and #4 is close) Anyways, I did some really cool backgrounds in TFC #1. I should have kept up with that!

Today's soundtrack provided by Gene Vincent and his Blue Caps. I bought this comp in Cincinnati the night that I first saw the Buzzcocks at Bogarts. I also bought a cassette copy of the Cramps Bad Music for Bad People that same day, but its lost to time.

This "The People's Artist presented by Johnny Depp" thing sure looks like a scam.

Its me again cornering a market! This time I'm aiming for that coveted Iron Maiden/60s Girl Group fan crossover niche.

Today's soundtrack for working on comics. Thinking about the time I said that my goal was to put out as comics as Billy Childish had records. HAH! He keeps moving the damn goal post...

Both new comics are twenty bucks plus shipping at nixcomics.com

Will I reach the goal of $2.000 worth of sales by the end of the day? I'm about seven people ordering both new titles away...* Go to nixcomics.com if you wanna help me out on that front!

THIS IS IT! The Last day to pre-order the 15th Anniversary Nix Comics titles: Flipside of Love and Undead Ballads! Flipside of love features art by Rock 'n roll heroes CM Campbell, Josie Renkwitz, and Pat Redding Scanlon! nixcomics.com 1/2

Your penultimate reminder about the Nix Comics pre-order sale! I may be biased, but the first issues of Flipside of Love and Undead Ballads are bonkers and you don't wanna miss 'em! www.nixcomics.com #SmallPress #romancecomics #horrorcomics #rocknroll

Billy is a wannabe who doesn't read comics, because he thinks he's too cool. Billy's music career comes to a painfully ironic cool-kid end in Undead Ballads #1. NOT a coincidence. Don't be like Billy. Pre-Order the new Nix Titles at nixcomics.com Art by Bob Ray Starker.

Getting ready for the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo - SPACE next weekend... actually bought a poster hanging thingamajig. Lucy is unimpressed.

A Razorcake/Gorsky Press, Inc. reviewer once said that the art in Nix Comics is like chocolate cake. (Or something to that effect). Tel ya what... The art by CM Campbell in Flipside of love is just as great, though maybe more of fancy gateau sorta thing. Pre-Orders at nixcomics.com

It's come to this... I recorded a dopey video to ask you to pre-order Nix Comics. Watch if you like seeing me make a dork of myself. Comment, like, and share if you wanna help me out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR4L... #SmallPress #comics #Rock-N-Roll
