Despicable Me Five by Daniel Boris

Big Planet Comics U St moved

From Jared Smith on Facebook.

So about a month ago I noticed the store two doors down from us had suddenly closed after 32 years. I called the landlord the next day and he said they were about to put it on the market through a realtor that morning but was I interested instead? After much debate we went for it! We had a month and a half to move.

We estimated 20 bookcases and 120 boxes of books. We booked a moving company for a Monday a month later. I tried to set up a city inspection but they contacted the wrong person and cancelled. A week later I tried again and we mostly passed.

That Thursday the came to install the security system at the new place. While drilling into the wall, there was a fritz and the AC stopped. Next week was all in the 90s+, and the move was Monday. Could they fix it before then? The tech was trapped in Florida by the floods!

The next Sunday night we closed at 5 and two people came to help the three employees pack. We got everything done in less than 4 hours (after running out of boxes).

The next morning we would close and they would move the Internet, then the movers in the afternoon.

When I arrived, the tech was already fixing the AC. Luckily it was a simple fix!

Then the Internet guy came and started installing. While that was happening, I got several unknown calls I ignored. A knock on the door. "We're the movers, we're here early at noon!"

The three of them began moving in the crazy heat. Only two of us were there to unpack. I finally insisted they take a lunch break, and got them some water too. They finished up in 4 hours, a great job.

We worked another 3 hours unpacking as much as we could.

I stayed 2 more hours to try to clean up our mess a bit. So many boxes to recycle now!

We got all the boxes in the right sections of bookshelves but about half was still unpacked.

The next morning we opened again for business and I drove off on vacation!

Sorry manager!

I will return next week.

New location at 1524 U St open! Party Saturday July 20!

June 27 Shawn Martinbrough cancelled at Fantom!

CHANGED DATE: ANANSI BOYS singing with SHAWN MARTINBROUGH will be next TUESDAY, JULY 2nd at 6:30pm to sign issue #1 and talk about the book

Dark Horse PR for Martinbrough's Anansi Boys comic

ANANSI BOYS #1

#1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman joins forces with Eisner nominated Adora writer Marc Bernardin and Thief of Thieves cocreator Shawn Martinbrough to adapt Gaiman's Locus and British Fantasy Award-winning novel as a comic book series for the first time—and soon to be a television show on Amazon Prime!

"Fat" Charlie Nancy leads a boring life as a boring Londoner, until he discovers two things: That his recently deceased father was, in fact, Anansi the Spider, the trickster god of African folklore, and that he has a twin brother he's never met. Which kicks off a reality-spanning odyssey of sibling rivalry, jealous deities, and one poor soul who'll realize what it means to be a god.

• Faithfully adapted from the original novel!

Liza Donnelly, DC-born cartoonist, launches Women Laughing Kickstarter

Women Laughing

A documentary about the women cartoonists of The New Yorker, past and present, and the power of their work to help us see differently.

Liza Donnelly

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/womenlaughingfilm/women-laughing

WOMEN LAUGHING is a documentary about the diverse women cartoonists who have graced the pages of The New Yorker from the first issue to the present day, as well as a fun, insightful journey into how women's humor reflects their struggles and helps us to see differently.

In WOMEN LAUGHING, New Yorker cartoonist Liza Donnelly sets out to explore her lifelong passion for humor and cartooning by talking with, and sometimes drawing with, other funny women. These fantastic and groundbreaking women will include the iconic Roz Chast; Amy Hwang, the magazine's first Asian woman cartoonist; stand up cartoonist Emily Flake; and Bishakh Som, the magazine's first trans woman cartoonist, among others.

For centuries, in fact until very recently, women and people of color were mostly kept away from the gates of humor. In this entertaining and eye-opening film, Donnelly also draws on her acclaimed book, Very Funny Ladies, which tells the little-known story of the women cartoonists who have appeared on the pages of the celebrated magazine since it was founded nearly 100 years ago.

From the pioneering cartoonists like Barbara Shermund and Helen Hokinson in the 1920s, to the artists of the second wave of feminism in the 1970s, right up to the present, the film will look at how far women have come in a field long dominated by men.

Like good comedians, cartoon artists hold up a mirror, reflecting the good, bad and the ugly bits of our culture right back at us, while making us laugh. Today at The New Yorker, there are more diverse artists who are women and non-binary. Yet the struggle is far from over.

New Yorker cartoonists Roz Chast, Amy Hwang, Emily Flake, Liza Donnelly

This film will explore how women's humor is changing the narrative by helping us see the world differently.

Donnelly's journey is to understand the lure of humor, especially for women cartoonists. What are they working towards? The next laugh, or something more profound?

The film is currently in pre-production, and we plan to begin filming this summer.

The New Yorker Magazine is turning 100 years old in 2025, and our goal is to complete and premiere the film next year in time for the many anniversary celebrations for the iconic publication.

Liza will be working with director Kathleen Hughes, a three time Emmy-award winning filmmaker, whose most recent films include THE AMERICAN DREAM AND OTHER FAIRY TALES with Abigail Disney, and TWO AMERICAN FAMILIES with Bill Moyers, as well as with producer Judith Mizrachy whose recent films include the BOOKSELLERS, UNCROPPED, and the Oscar-nominated THE MARTHA MITCHELL EFFECT. Combined, our team has deep knowledge and passion for telling these women's stories.

Some of the women cartoonists at the Society of Illustrators in NYC

We would love to have you as part of the team! Make sure to be following us on Twitter and Instagram to stay up to date with the project!

Risks and challenges

The challenge for this film is to show the amazing creativity of these artists and the nuance of what they do. Liza plans to talk and draw with the cartoonists and we hope to make it a deep and funny conversation as we draw. Since Liza is friends with the artists, we hope this will come naturally so that the viewer can experience it with her.

Storybox Comics Fair day 2 pictures

It was a mighty hot day in DC, but you could get a cold beer with your indy comics at Storybox's day 2. I don't drink beer, but I did chat with cartoonists. Unfortunately I hadn't realized that exhibitors on day 1 would not be at day 2, so I missed all of them.

Pictures below the PR.
