Jimmy Gownley at Hooray for Books

Jimmy Gownley gave a fun talk tonight at Hooray for Books! in Alexandria, VA. He talked about getting into comics, self-publishing, doing Amelia Rules! comic book, and his new book autobiographic graphic novel The Dumbest Idea Ever! The bookstore has a couple of signed copies left, if you contact them soon. Tomorrow, Gownley will be in Fredrick, Md at Beyond Comics.  More pictures are here. Note that the last one is actually Outcault's Yellow Kid!
