Three things to tell you about here
First-
the winner of the A.L. Coloring contest is...HERE
Second-
The issue of Archer and Armstrong by Valiant with the
alternative cover by Arsenic L ullaby's illustrator, has hit the
store shelves. From what I understand it's one of
those alt. covers you have to preorder, so if you didn't tell
your store to get it...fat chance they have a copy. BUT I
have a handful here and you can get it on our online store as a
package deal with an autographed print of the cover
illustration.
Get that

coupon code -humbug- good for 20% off at checkout at
the ONLINE STRORE because I haven't gotten around to taking
it down.
Third...we
reprinted older stuff.
As the guy who makes the Arsenic Lullaby stories I am
always focused on what is next, because what is next is awesome
and what I'm working on now is a pain in the ass, and what I did
previously...I have little memory of.
The filthy
capitalist in me is pleased when people ask for older stuff to
be reprinted. It means a lot of new people are finding Arsenic
Lullaby. The original run of Arsenic Lullaby ( the comic book
sized issues) hasn't been reprinted in about 6 years...seven
years? I don't remember exactly but it's been long enough
that enough people want to be able to own the early work that it
bares reprinting...again.
The last time I reprinted
basically all of it into a big 450 pg collection. I'm not doing
that again. It was too much work, and as far as I have come at
illustration...some of the older stories are embarrassing to
look at compared to what I do now. The writing on the
other hand, has always been pretty sharp. Even with some
of the early work being over 15 years old, it's still edgy and
funny as hell.
Here's what I got for you.
ONLINE STORE
It's 90 some pages of what I consider the best or most essential
stories
from the early part of the run. The plan is to do a part two
with the best from the later part of the run, but this stands on
it's own and there are no cliff hanger or anything like that and
it's a nice historical chunk of the series. -the first
appearance of Voodoo Joe- -a couple of Alien Centaur stories-
-Baron Von Donut vs some Nazis-
-The Teddy Roosevelt and Tooth
Fairy Conspiracy-
and whole bunch of other stuff.
It's all
really good work, when you trim 11 issues of an already great
run down to 90pgs...you're really talking the cream of the crop.
It's limited to 300 copies however ( There's a reason for
that and it's a long story) signed and numbered with a sketch on
the back.

The question for some of you is "Do I have this already?"
One day I'll make a big timeline of what came out when and
what was collected into what. "one day", which means
probably never.
I'll break thing down like this- these
stories are from comic book sized issues, not magazine sized .
None of this (covers below) is in this new collection.
If you have any of this...(covers below) then you already have what's
in this collection.

STRORE because I haven't gotten around to taking it down.
the few copies we have left
of the Misprint that nearly bankrupted me.
It is an 88 page collection that was printed backwards.
I was going to set them all on fire in waiting room of the
printer, but some of you have been asking if you can own one.
So...go
HERE for that.
