Benign Kingdom

In celebration of the Benign Kingdom books being sent out, here's some new Death and Cecilia art that Yuko cleaned up and colored for the occasion. Can't wait to do the next Girl with the Skeleton Hand arc!

That's all for us! See you Thursday. 

Have a good trip Yuko!

The last box and the end of our tale. Please insert an appropriate quote from your favorite Shakespearean tragedy. 

Yuko's off to Japan! There are a few comics from her last trip on the site, and a few more in volume 1 I believe! I am holding down the fort, which mostly means I'll be keeping my head down and working in her absence. Yuko managed to get a bunch of updates done ahead of time, so comics will post as usual.

The very last of our CMYcat, Phoenix Down and Hokusai shirts are in the store! Grab them while you can! Not sure when we'll be reprinting them!

That's all for now! See you next week!

Yuko's off to Japan!

We had some shipping problems! Oh dear.  

Yuko's leaving Friday to head to Japan for about 2 weeks! But don't worry, we won't be missing an update - Yuko's been hard at work getting a bunch of comics done so that we can post them in her absence. Have a good trip Yuko! Eat all the good food. 

That's all for us! Catch you Thursday!

Oh gosh

Haha, this happened to Yuko more than once on the West coast! People seem to be super friendly and ready to compliment and chat with you, which startled us. It was nice and we got used to it! 

We're still recovering, but slowly getting back on track! The store is back up. We have very few t-shirts left now - if you'd like a CMYCat, Phoenix Down or Hokusai shirt, snag one now while there's still time! We're not sure when we'll reprint them. 

I'm going to call it here - have a good weekend and we'll catch you next week!

Back from ECCC

We're back! And exhausted. A lot of e-mails and work to catch up on. Yuko collected some of the convention sketches she did for this update. 

Thanks so much for coming out to see us at ECCC, Wondercon and Floating World! We were pretty overwhelmed by all the people we met, it was a great experience. You know what else is a pretty great experience? Sleeping. Imma do it. Catch you Thursday. 

Emerald City Comic Con

Hey everyone! We'll be at ECCC in Seattle, WA this weekend at table A-22 in the Artist's Alley - we're tabling with Adam Warrock! Come by and say hello! Here's a handy map so you can easily find us (we're right near the entrance!):

Oh, and thanks for coming out to Floating World for the signing! That was fun. 

We gotta hit the hay now as we've got an early start heading to Seattle tomorrow - hope to see you there!

Floating World signing tomorrow!

We're still on the road, currently bunked down at George's place in Portland, OR. We have a signing tomorrow (Wednesday) at Floating World from 6-8 PM! Come by and say hello, we'll have volume 1 and volume 2!

After that we're off to Emerald City Comic Con this weekend in Seattle, WA - if you can't catch us tomorrow, we'll hopefully see you then!

A few other cool items:

Yuko drew an Atomic Robo short! It's featured in "Atomic Robo Presents... Real Science Adventures", which I believe just debuted!
Oh! We were also featured on the website for the Minds in the Gutter artist spotlight, a feature of the Henry Art Gallery in Washington! Pretty cool.

That's all for us! Catch you Thursday (or Wednesday, if you swing by the signing!)
