Yup, we will have new shirts from Marc Arsenault and Simon Gane at HeroesCon this weekend. But, just to recap, first, there will also be: Ian Lynam’s Parallel Strokes, Marc Arsenault’s new Book “Adventures in Excitement”, new CDs from Offset Needle Radius and nickname: Rebel, lots of books by Simon Gane and Steven Cerio. So come look for the Wow Cool sign and the spaceman in Indie Island, where Marc will be drawing pictures and Joshua Baker will be making music.

OK, T-shirts. Each is available in sizes S, M, L, XL. They are on super high-quality 100% cotton shirts. They will be very reasonably priced. First up, brand new from Vertigo’s Vinyl Underground artist Simon Gane, is this super-stylish 2-sided promotional shirt for his book with Ian Lynam and Kim Fern: Sap.

And, even more confusing is this also stylish number from Marc Arsenault made especially for this event. Let them know you’ll never be retconned again!

And there will be much, much more at the show, free stickers, garage sale specials, costumed surprises, tigers, Brown Cuts Neighbors, The Doris book, a big box of “last copies” going back years… See you there!

Two weeks until Heroes Con! I am so not ready. But there is some great stuff starting to pile up for the show. There will be debuts of new T-Shirts by me (Marc Arsenault) and Simon Gane (Arnie, Paris, Vinyl Underground), Joshua Baker of Notes from the Lighthouse zine and God Hates Computers and many other bands will be helping out at the table. He’s planning a superhero day for us. So, uh, look out.

We just received a big box of Ian Lynam’s amazing Parallel Strokes book and will have those at the show. I’m frantically working on getting a Brown Cuts Neighbors sampler DVD and my new comic collection “Adventures In Excitement” ready. As before. Wish me luck! More updates coming soon, and hopefully more blogging here, been too busy just fixing bits of the thing that went wobbly after an upgrade.

Wow Cool will be at the Heroes Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, June 20-22, 2008. There will be a few new debuts, lots of stuff by Simon Gane, Steve Cerio and myself, music, comics, shirts, etc. I’m hoping to spend most of my time drawing sketches of 70s Marvel monsters for the kids (or, failing that, for Frank Santoro). Updates to come in this space. You can look for the new shop and some other fun web stuff to go up well before then (hey, the Interweb is hard). Thanks.
