Thank you so much to Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo’s amazing staff and volunteers, my table neighbors @pommopress and @theholidayspecial, and all of the people who came by my table. extra special thanks to my very kind and generous friends @very._nice @wollymulch for having me in your beautiful home 🏡 ! here are my pics: 1 & 2 were taken by a very helpful staff member who apologized for finger blocking lens, and I’m sorry it’s my favorite one because it obscures my face. Then a mostly normal one that he also took, then 2 by the incredible @thekatzsisters , 1 by @emmaganoosh , my own little haul of trades (reminder that I rarely leave my table to buy stuff but love to trade. I like leaving these shows with somebody else’s books in addition to my leftovers), and a couple pics of hauls in which I appear from @hudrewthis and @skullnr2 . The big tour continues 11/3 at short run Seattle! Time to re-up my inventory ✂️✂️✂️

THE REBECCA JONES NAME STORY (after harvey pekar + r. crumb)

10/20/18

i went to massachusetts independent comic expo (MICE) yesterday! it was a lot of fun. i attended a workshop led by josh neufeld where we looked at this comic by r. crumb and made our own versions of it, and i really liked the process and the outcome.

so here’s some thoughts on “rebecca”. transcription under the cut

1. [Image: Rebecca looks at the metaphorical “camera”, interview-style.] “My name has been a matter of some concern over the years.”

2. “It’s Rebecca Jones!” [Name is in a bright marquee-style sign.]

3. [She turns the sign off with a “click”.] “It’s... generic.”

4. “Finding email addresses, domain names, usernames... It’s always a chore.”

5. “I’ve spent a lot of time hating it. I use a lot of nicknames. Becky. Becca. Beck. And so on.”

6. [She holds up a magnifying glass.] “But looking at it from an outside perspective, sans connotation, has helped.”

7. [She holds the magnifying glass over her eye, making it look huge.] “I like the CC. I like how it sounds.”

8. “At least no one mispronounces it.”

9. “It’s easy-ish to spell. So there are some pluses.”

10. [She looks to the side, thinking.]

11. “Can’t escape ‘Becky with the Good Hair’, though.”

12. [She holds up her hair.] It’s not even that good.”

Great weekend at MICE, the Massachusetts Independent Comic Expo, aka #massMICE #MICE2018 #bestshowever

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT - and all the kids who were inspired by the Hero Machine, who drew stuff for me, and who actually bought so many of my comics that I sold out!

By the way, I post these creations only to show that the Hero Machine works. Anyone wants to meet the artists, and maybe talk about buying some of these masterpieces, well, come to the next show!
