I’m making TOTE BAGS for TCAF and MeCAF this year! Holy crow!!!
I’m hoping to have a similar design available through Topatoco sometime in the near future, but I’m having these done by a local company (managed by a former employee of my comic shop, which is kind of perfect) so they’ll be real on time for May!

“ The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours ”
“ Books have a unique way of stopping time in a particular moment and saying: Let’s not forget this. ”
Dave Eggers
