Hello there peoples!

I’m doing a signing at A Different Light bookstore at 489 Castro St. @ 18th on Friday, September 22nd, 7-9pm with Steve MacIsaac (STICKY, SHIRTLIFTER) and Andy Hartzell (MONDAY). It’s also a book release for HARD TO SWALLOW #2 , the gay porn book I’m doing with Dave Davenport, and THE BOOK OF BOY TROUBLE , an anthology of alternative queer boy cartoonists, which includes stories from Steve, Andy, and me (my first color piece, by the way). I’ll also be debuting my newest mini-comic, SWALLOWING A COBRA’S HEART AND OTHER TRUE TRAVEL TALES, in case you want something different from gratuitous penises and stories about whiny gay boys.

If for some (very compelling) reason you can’t make the event, you can buy the books via the various websites, or order them from your friendly neighborhood book/comic book stores. And as always, I have a bunch of comics available on my own website… This last mini isn’t up on it yet, but will be soon, along with a site revamp. I promise. Really. Look, just get off my back, bitches…

So please come by and support your favorite, poor cartoonists who chain themselves to their drawing tables for your amusement!

Lots of love,

Justin

GENERAL NEWS
COCOA will be updating on a regular basis again which i’m happy about and
even happier that my two cats (after staying with some nice people for three
months while i was without a permanent home) are finally back! it was
getting the kitties that got me thinking about previous pets which got me
writing/drawing this story in the first place.

THIS WEEK:
the search for Cocoa comes to a close.

HAIR COLOR UPDATE
it’s way short and, gasp, natural…i dyed it over the summer and it was
looking crappy so i cut my losses (hahah) and chopped it off. it’s actually
really nice to have hair that’s only about and inch long. you just don’t
have to think about it at all.

quick little goodbye: bye.

enjoy the comic.
