Charlie finds an appropriate pillow
I cannot guarantee the efficacy of using this book as a pillow, but who am I to tell a cat what to do?
Thanks schmuela!!!

NYCC

Here's a picture of me signing books at Comic Con in New York this weekend. Thanks to everyone who showed up and said hi and/or bought a book. It will be available to non-Comic Con attendees on March 1st and you can preorder it now on Amazon.
There will likely be other signings in LA, possibly San Diego, and maybe Salt Lake. I'll post more info as things develop.
If you don't get a chance to meet me in person (and who can blame you), I'll be sending out free signed bookplates via self-addressed stamped envelope once the book is out. More on that later as well.
I have some fun stuff planned for the coming weeks, so watch this space.

1825
(This image is what comes up when you search for "1825" in the creative commons pool on flickr (thanks cliff1066!).)
1825 also happens to be the booth number for Abrams at New York ComicCon, which I will be attending this weekend. I'll be signing my as-yet-to-be-released book there on Friday from 3 to 4, and Saturday from 11 to Noon.

This is not a winner
...because it's from last year. It didn't win then either. It's still my favorite though. He's got a tiny head! I should have made the butterfly gigantic.
But! One of my Tilley's did win and is on the New Yorker site this week: NYer.
There were many many excellent entries, though no one has yet gone to the extreme of getting Eustace Tilley tattooed on their noggin. There's always next year, someone.

As mentioned previously, I'll be attending ComicCon in NYC this weekend. There won't be a comic posted on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday as a result. I'll try to make it up to you all somehow.
Thank you.

Previously unseen
Here's a sneak preview of a previously unseen comic from the book. I even made sure to draw it with my eyes closed so not even I would have seen it. I still haven't. You might be the first. I hope I remembered the whiskers!

Look Around You
Stop whatever you are doing and seek out the rest of these. You will not regret it.
Write that down in your copybook now.

2 A side project which I am allowing to ferment in the sun.
3 Toon Club, overseen by my coworker and fellow comic book fiend Adrian Ropp.
4 Drawn, the indispensable. I made a New Years resolution to post more here.

In lieu of a comic tonight, how about a 4 word preview...
...of John Hodgman's introduction to the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats Sell Out. In stores soon.
Good advice for these trying times, Mr. Hodgman!

Don't mess with the X-men.
Check out Elio's take on a classic X-Men cover. I hope more artists get in on this. I've already started one.

In honor of Lewis Carroll's birthday, today is Down the Rabbit Hole Day...
...wherein bloggers are encouraged to mix things up a bit.
So, here's Burl Ives singing a song that's been in my head all week for some reason.

I can't tell you how nice it is to have a possibly fictional great-dad to blame utterly ridiculous things on.
That guy was nuts.

Laugh-Out-Loud Cats #1027
I am home after a couple of weeks on the road. If you have a pending request or an email I haven't responded to, I hope to rectify everything soon.
Also, I will be attending New York ComicCon next month and signing copies of my book at the Abrams table on Friday and Saturday, and maybe more. I'll post more details as they develop.
