Can you believe that what you see above is part of a real sign? Someone thought to themselves that this poor excuse for typography and signage was a good idea?
Over at YourLogoMakesMeBarf.com you can see plenty more logos that, well, may make you barf. It’s like Cake Wrecks for graphic designers. Thanks to Systemic Marty for the link! LINK.
Systemic Tim sends in an interesting look at feminism in video games, focusing on Super Metroid, it’s maternal themes, and how it compares to how Ripley kicked some hard core ass in Aliens. LINK.
A while back, @POWCGeek put out on Twitter a call for webcomics to review. “Why not?” I thought. Apparently, this is why not.
Ah yes, it’s back!Talked about far and wide (and here on the blog more than a few times) is Super Art Fight 5! That right there is a clip from the last show, only a few months back and gives you an idea of what this show will be like. Coming to Baltimore Comic Con? Perfect! SAF5 is in Baltimore, not far from the con this Friday (October 9th) at the Metro Gallery. All the details you need can be found right here.
This show is heating up, as we are featuring myself, Marty, Nick, Jami, Dern, Jamie, Danielle, Lar, Bryan, Kelsey, Bracco and Chris! That’s more comic artists than most conventions, and they’ll all be drawing, fighting, and generally rocking out.
Howdy Systemics! Boy, do I have some news for you. Quoted from my new online store, HilariAwesome.com:
After months of procrastination and panic, [...] the BETA launch of HilariAwesome! This is great news for you, as all products are marked down from their normal prices while we work out the kinks. Until 10/26, prints are marked from $10 down to $7. Shirts from $20 down to $17. So look around, and spread the word while we make HilariAwesome your destination for the Venn Diagram of hilarious and awesome. LINK.
Up on the site is Jimmy the Murderdog, HELLVetica, a new Biking Shooter shirt in PREORDER (after many requests), and finally big beautiful prints of every comic in the archive. As it mentions, the site is still in BETA so please help me test it out, find the problems, and make it an amazing experience for you and everyone else. Thanks! Now go buy stuff.
Feeling trepidatious? Here are pics of the store and of the new “Bike Shooter” shirt. Click to make biggy.
