Go Buy This Book!

If you want to get your hands on one of the best books on the art of caricature available today, head over to Tom Richmond's and pick up a copy of "The MAD Art of Caricature". And if you head over to Minnesota's Fall Con this Saturday, October 15 you can meet Tom in person and get that book SIGNED - (and he might draw you a caricature too, but I'm not promising anything...)

And while you're in a book buying mood, pick up a copy of "The Edison Files: Notes From The Lab" for those Edison fans on your Christmas list. And, as with Tom, John will also be at Fallcon this Saturday selling and signing books for all the folks who read Edison in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.  (Oh, and I think some guy named Stephan Pastis will be there with his latest book as well. I haven't read his stuff but I hear he's good....)

Journey To a Book Part Three

John has put up his final installment of the process of creating the first Edison Book Collection here.

Don't forget to order your copy today!! (So we can get those boxes out of the studio and pay back the printer :-)

A Big Thank You

Thank you so much to everyone who braved the awful weather and ventured out to buy signed copies of "The Edison Files: Notes From The Lab"!

It was a great day. John sold lots and lots of books and I sold lots and lots of truffles!

There is still time to buy a book as a Christmas Gift - (hint, hint) visit the Edison Store to order your copy today! We need to receive your order by December 17 to be sure of delivery by Christmas.

On a separate note: for those of you that enjoyed reading about the travails of my produce drawer of death, I have a follow up (warning: graphic photos of decayed produce - may not be appropriate for more sensitive readers) posted over on the overbooked blog.

The Edison Store is now open!

Buy the first collection of Edison Lee, "The Edison Files: Notes From The Lab" here.

On a Happier Note - The Book is Here!

It's Here!

We're working on a paypal button for the website so that we can start taking orders - I'll update when it's up. We'll also be selling them over on the Cartoonist's Studio as soon as their store is up and running.

In the meantime, we will have copies available at this weekend's Toonfest for any of you that will be attending. We will also be selling them in Omaha at the North Central Chapter of the National Cartoonist's Society's fall meeting the weekend of October first. And we will have some with us at the Festival of Cartoon Art at OSU the weekend of October 16.

Book Sneak Peek

I recently posted these on twitter - for you who missed them, here are a couple sneak peaks at the Edison Book:

These are our own personal mock ups - hence the binder clips :-)

The strip in the lower right corner is one that was killed before it could be published. There will be lots of little goodies like that scattered throughout the book.
