Here's the next entry in our current batch of daily video and photo teasers of upcoming releases: Deitch's Pictorama, a unique and exciting book of "picto-fiction" by brothers Simon, Seth and Kim Deitch. Watch the video above, and take a closer look in our photo gallery. (Note that these images are of my own personal copy, so you'll see a signature and inscription on the Table of Contents page that aren't part of the printed book.)
I stumbled across both these links today, and was going to include them in tomorrow's "Blogosphere roundup," but decided they deserve their own post: Woodring Simulacra is a blog compiling images of real-world "things that look like Jim Woodring made them up," and Jimland Novelties is a Flickr user who is posting images of an incredible collection of Woodring rarities and ephemera, with Jim's permission.
I just can't resist pointing out this editorial boo-boo by our pals over at The Stranger, mistakenly placing the graphic for next Wednesday's David B. event with today's item for the Museum of Bad Art on their SLOG blog. I'm trembling in mock outrage!
Our latest batch of daily video and photo teasers of upcoming releases marches on with a look at the last of three releases in our Ignatz format due later this month: Sammy the Mouse #2 by Zak Sally (which some of you on the West Coast have been lucky enough to pick up at one of Zak's recent tour stops). Watch the video above, and take a closer look in our photo gallery.
Watch as IFC News interviews Dash Shaw about Bottomless Belly Button at our booth at Comic-Con, intercut with clips from the BBB trailer, footage of karate ballet Spider-Man and other sights from the Con. (If you can't see it above, you can download it here - it's only a 5 MB Quicktime.)
Mome contributor Robert Goodin has a couple of new items available in his online shop. How can you not want to buy this silkscreened-on-wood-veneer postcard of a giraffe wearing goggles riding a bike with a sissy bar? C'mon!
Our daily (almost — sorry we missed yesterday) video and photo teasers of upcoming releases continue with the second of three releases in our Ignatz format due later this month: Baobab #3 by Igort. Watch the video above, and take a closer look in our photo gallery.
Bill North, Senior Curator at the Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas, sends us this link to photos of the exhibit "BLAB! A Retrospective," featuring artwork from the past several volumes of our BLAB! anthology. The exhibit opened last week and runs through November 2, 2008.
