Hey all! COPOUT Artists is going to be tabling at Small Press Expo. Come stop by our booth and say hi. We will be selling a new comics volume plus more COPOUT stuff and FREE candy. Hope to see you there!

Page 7 of Walter Extreme is up, and now it is in black and white.  

Firstly, I think making the move to black and white was a good choice.  It gave me more time to focus on detail.  Eventually, I will be posting multiple pages a week.  Right now, it doesn’t look like that will be achieved until after SPX.  I will be in a show next weekend and I have to do last minute preparing for that.  My time will be split, just enough, to make the monday update.  Then the following weekend is SPX!  We have a table and you should all come buy our stuff, we’re at W18B.  I will be selling my previously unreleased zine.  We will also be selling COPOUT Volume 2, which features the first chapter of Walter Extreme.

This is also viewable on my website, where you can get caught up on Walter, here.

Our new book is up for sale on Big Cartel for the low-low price of $5!  Unreal right?  If you missed your chance to buy one last friday be sure to head on over and buy it.  A few will still be available at various comic stores in Philly, but why not buy it directly from us though?

I felt like the piece for COPOUT needed to be revised.  I lightened up the “Merry X-mas” and I made the background darker, and I fixed the lighting on Baby N’s bow.

What's that, true believer? You want more ducks in comics, you say? Well, because you demanded it...I guess...here it is! A comic from April by James Kaminski. See more of his work at jkamosaurus.tumblr.com

Okay, been awhile things have been kinda crazy for COPOUT and stuff, and Arthur is on hold for the foreseeable near future, sadly.  

I’m still doing work though.  Here’s a short comic of mine “Mama Billy.”  It originated from a COPOUT joke photo, where I was holding a stack of comics like fresh hot pies.  This is also my application comic for CCS.  I have a portfolio review tomorrow let’s hope it goes well!

Here’s one of the things I did for the Sugar High Zine! Hopefully it’ll be out soon… Hurricane Sandy may have set us back a bit… but keep on the look out. There’s soo much great work in it!
