Small Press Expo was absolutely incredible. Thank you to everyone who stopped by my table. For some reason the only photo I took all weekend was of this bagel. If you took any pics with me or of my table, will you share them with me?
Bacon egg and cheese on everything bagel, an invention I came up with entirely on my own. Any time someone orders one of these I receive a $0.05 royalty

Three panel comic. Panel 1: in a diner, a waitress looks over her shoulder to watch a TV mounted on the wall. A news reporter is one screen, surrounded with text that reads FOUR DEAD and DEVELOPING STORY. The reporter says, “please be advised— the murderer is still at large.” Panel 2: the reporter continues, “here’s their photo.” He gestures with his pen towards a photo next to him. The photo is a guinea pig wearing a multicolored propeller hat. Panel 3: the waitress watches the TV pensively. Behind her at the diner counter is a guinea pig in a propeller hat, seated before a plate with an entire head of lettuce. This may be the murderer in question but at this stage I’d only be speculating.

Page 14: The man looks at his sleeping dog, Sadie. She is marked with spots of the new color. Man: “It’s… so beautiful.” Alien 1&2 are laughing. Alien 1: “Alright– chill, man. That’s one– we got six more.” Page 15: Man: “Six??” Alien: “Keep this.” It hands the man the little paper-wrapped new color. “We found six more humans to give the remaining colors. Maybe someday you’ll meet. Maybe your grandkids will meet.” Page 16: Alien: “No rush. Goodbye.” The two aliens float straight up through the ceiling, with a “zhoop.” The man stares up at the ceiling, bewildered. Page 17: The man looks closely at the wrapped paper envelope. “For now…” The paper envelope sits in a messy drawer of clothes. “It’s mine. It can just be mine for now.” The man is outside walking Sadie at sunset. Interwoven in the clouds are spots of the new color.
