Big thank you to Dr. Comics & Mr. Games

David was extra awkward in his gray cardigan probably.

We had an incredibly successful Local Comic Shop Day signing at Dr. Comics & Mr. Games. David sold books and prints, shook a lot of hands and had some awesome conversations. Thank you to everyone who came out AND a huge thank you to Dr. Comics & Mr. Games. That shop is the most welcoming nerd heaven around.

It's a strange thing, this creative business. You spend so much time coming up with a concept, writing a script, creating the art and crafting the language that it's easy to forget how difficult the actual selling and marketing can be when you don't have the full might of a publisher behind you. As I (David) set up the table, filled with concerns that no one would be interested, I kept thinking about everything we put into making this book. And then, before the table was even ready, someone bought a copy. It put me at ease and removed a lot of the anxiety of doing a signing for a big event like Local Comic Shop Day. Thank you to everyone.
