Hey folks!

First: welcome new readers! (Queerty readers, Redditors, SPXers, anyone else new.) I hope you enjoy the strip.

Second: SPX (The Small Press Expo) this past weekend was absolutely amazing. I sold out of books for the first time at a con! And I want to thank everyone who stopped by to talk to me and everyone who bought books and prints. You helped make my weekend fantastic.

Third: as you may know, in addition to making comics and having a day job, I volunteer with a local independent music-focused [internet] radio station called CHIRP Radio. (My experiences there have lead to jokes like this one) CHIRP Radio is 99.5% volunteer-run, listener-supported, and it’s a labor of love.

We are starting our fall fundraising drive right now, and for my fans, I’ve come up with an offer. If you go make a donation of ANY AMOUNT at CHIRPradio.org/donatenow, and put my full name (Tony Breed) in where it says “How did you hear about CHIRP Radio?”, I will send you a personally illustrated postcard. ANY AMOUNT. Yes. (And the more you donate, the more time I’ll spend on the postcard.) Your donation helps pay rent and streaming costs, and allows us to provide this great service. So think about it.

And also? Tune in Friday mornings 6am-9am Central and you can hear my show!

THANKS!
