The photo to the right features Jenny with Jonathan, long-time Flying Colors Faithful. Jonathan is now a producction assistant for IMAGE COMICS in Berkeley, as well as an MBA student, excellent cartoonist, pretty darn good tennis player and all-around good guy.
Jonathan (along with artist Terry Moore) surprised Jenny for her birthday a few months ago with an original page of art from Jen's favorite series: Moore's STRANGERS IN PARADISE. We've had the piece on display in the store, but it was time for Jenny display it in her digs, so I took this shot to show off the page, let you see a small corner of our store---
---And remind you that STRANGERS IN PARADISE is one really great and gripping read. We have all the trade paperbacks and pocket editions in stock right now, so next time you're in the shop, ask Jenny to give her recommendation for this series. SIP is a "Guaranteed Read"!
The 9 11 REPORT GRAPHIC ADAPTATION has been getting a lot of buzz lately. If you'd like to preview the book, SLATE.com has pages posted HERE! And remember, the reason some people get so goofy about comics is to keep from going crazy about things in general!
Peace!

WOW! You know you made it to the big time when you're on the Flying Colors blog! Honored and flattered to be on there. :-)
ReplyDeleteA couple random things:
1) I've moved up in the world and was upgraded to Production Artist at Image! (Woohoo!!)
2) I *use* to be a pretty darn good tennis player. Now.... hmm.... :-P
3) Strangers in Paradise is an awesome read! Terry Moore does comics like no one else in the biz!
4) Flying Colors is the best store in the universe (and there are a lot of stores in the universe :-P ).
See you on New Comic Day!
Jonathan!
