I hope that everyone had a happy holidays, if that’s your thing. 2012 is beginning in a couple of days and I’m stoked about the possibilities of a new year.

I’ll resume regular posting next week but for now enjoy this photo of my fellow cartoonist Kyle Nolan standing in front of the EPCOT geodesic dome, sporting the Candy or Medicine t-shirt with my drawing:

Here’s the front door. We’ve got Glade’s Welcome to the Hypercastle print on the door, a new artwork by her above the TV, our Christmas tree (out a bit early, we know), and a spinner rack of Glademade cards.

Our coffee table is chockful of comics. Most of them are for reading but a few are for sale. I’ve got comics I’ve drawn (such as my latest, VORTEX), comics by fellow GCPM members (such as Kid Space Heater by Josh Burggraf and Lords ov thee Black Sun by Mike Miles), two issues of the GCP’s poetry/comics anthology Catch Up, and various issues of anthologies that I’ve been in (Math Fiction, Candy or Medicine, Smoke Signal, Taffy Hips, and Secret Prison). Come by, chill out on our couch, and feel free to flip through everything.

We’ve got almost all of the prints from our Hypercastle print show at Austin Books and Comics and every print we had for sale last year.

Candy or Medicine Volume 12 for Sale

I drew the cover for Volume 12 of the comics anthology Candy or Medicine, check it out:

Cover for Candy or Medicine Volume 12

The anthology is 14 black-and-white 4.25×5.5″ pages and features comics by Willard Herman, Sam Spina, Tori Holder, Kyle Nolan, Steven Myers, Ray N, and Brandon Lehmann. I think that Nolan’s comic is particularly awesome because it name checks VALIS and stars PKD.

If you want to get yourself a copy of Candy or Medicine Volume 12, you can order it here (direct) or here (etsy) for $1 plus $0.50 shipping or pick up a copy for $1 at Domy Austin.
