New York Comic Con 2009

Curls Studio will be at New York Comic Con February 6-8, 2009! Provided is a map of where you can find the Curls Studio table. We will be in space D5 in Artist Alley.

Joe is super excited to see Joss Whedon and I'm excited about Bruce Timm!

But most importantly we are both excited to unveil a literal "sneak peek" of our newest comic book series – The Legettes. Set in a dark future, The Legettes is an action adventure story about burlesque dancers who become super spies in their quest of changing the universe.

Happy Birthday to Applause!

Today is Applause's birthday. He is my little Siamese fighting fish and champion fighter in the waterweight division. He lives on today to fight and hang out with his girlfriend, Surprise.

He even has his own book of Curls comic strips, Applause the Fighting Fish.

Rock 'N' Shop Recap

Last Sunday, December 21, Joe and I had a table for Rock 'N' Shop at the Black Cat. I was really impressed by the large turnout for a Sunday night. There were all sorts of things for sale. Lots of records, silkscreened items, toys, and handcrafted merchandise. Curls Studio was there with comics and other fun items that related to our comics such as the Curls Magic Mittens and Curls Greeting Cards.


I was glad to have people come up to us and say they remember us from the Richmond Zine Fest and remember the Paris Hilton strip or say they recognize us from SPX. It also was very good to meet new people who don't get out to the typical comic conventions. We represent comics in DC's art and music scene... while performing on the very same stage as Good Charlotte, Remy Zero, and Phantom Planet!

Get in the Holiday Spirit!

Enjoy these Curls comic strips. If you click on the top comic you can see it animated in full glory. I have to say this is a great use of an animated gif... if I do say so myself! The one below with the reindeer is actually based on a real experience. On Saturday I looked out the window of my home and saw a giant deer with full antlers! I believe his name is Prancer.

Rock 'N' Shop is this Sunday!
