FUN TIME FALL 2022 - going into the mail
🕑 Added 2022-09-30 13:56:18 +0000 UTC
I wanted to share this update to let Patrons know my new 'zine with the unwieldy title FUN TIME FALL 2022, SELL-OUT COMICS (the Generation X issue) is going into the mail this weekend. Please allow a few days to arrive, but if you haven't received your copy in the next seven to ten days, let me know. A couple packages from my last batch never arrived. International Patrons maybe give it a few days more.
This one was a lot of fun. It collects some material that had previously been published online, and quite a bit of all-new work. Once I settled on the "theme" of Generation X, I felt propelled to make a number of new comics to try and bring things all-together. I feel like I arrived somewhere creatively with this, and I wouldn't have been able to do that without your backing.
I really appreciate all the folks subscribing to what I'm now calling my 'Zine Club. I used to go to small-press conventions fairly regularly, and those used to provide good motivation to make new self-published work, but I really haven't done so much of that in the past few years. Having a number of you signed up to receive new minicomics as I make them has really been a great way to keep me propelled forward on these types of projects, even when I don't have many physical conventions or festivals on the horizon.
Once this is out of the door, I'll start getting my head around a third FUN TIME collection, but in the meantime I wanted to share for $5 supporters, a tease of another self-published mini that I'm putting together and planning on mailing out in November. This will be a little ashcan booklet putting into print one of the better comics I wrote for The Nib, along with an all-new essay. More to come on this soon...
