Have You Ever Seen The Movie...

I don't even know what I can say about this guy. The next morning he'd found me on facebook somehow, and I was greeted with the charming profile picture of his finger up his nose and his mouth wide open with his tongue hanging out. Hawt.

Don't forget that The Art of Secret Prison will be on display at Brave New Worlds this First Friday! Details at the link. I may also print up one of these bar drawing to hang up at the show. Which one do you think deserves the honor?

Heart Problem (from Secret Prison #2!)

Hey gang, pick up your copy of Secret Prison #2 yet? It's seriously killer. I'm so impressed by everybody's comics. Next issue's gonna have some stiff competition!

We're also having a show this coming First Friday in old city! Original artwork from Secret Prison #1 and #2 will be on display at Brave New Worlds (45 N. 2nd Street), Sept. 3rd 6-10pm. Fancy! I'll have both my comics up and you'll be able to pick up the new issue there. Come check it out!

In the meantime, my comic from #2:

Eh?! Native Speaker?!

Remember the "So I Walked Into A Bar..." series? Yeah I forgot about it too. Well, here comes the next edition, from the cramped little bar in my very quiet neighborhood when I lived in Tokyo. This geography teacher was so interested in talking to us about America and American things as he sloshed around for a while. And I apparently made his night after he made an off-the-cuff comment about not liking rap because he can't understand what they're saying.

Japan is the best place to meet friendly, talkative drunks. More of these to come from that side of the world!

The Functionality of Flaws

Hey hey superfriends, I want to thank everybody who came out for the Philly Alt Comic Con and supported local cartoonists! It was a total blast, and we had the best seats in the house (right in front of the only window fan ;)). I'm really looking forward to next year!

And in the meantime, I'll be sharing a table with Claire Folkman and Dre Time at B.Y.O.T.Y. II (Bring Your Own Table Yo!) at Little Berlin on September 26. I am planning a few more books for that event, so check it out! Should be sweet.

The Secret Prison #2 release party was also really great, and the tabloid itself is so incredibly good. Make sure you check out comic shops around the city for a copy, every page is fantastic! I'll be posting my comic from it soon.

At PACC I got to debut my hand-bound books of my "The Functionality of Flaws" series of drawings. For your viewing pleasure I have uploaded them all on my website! Go enjoy my resourceful little ladies. Feel free to email me if you'd like a copy (kellymakesart (at) gmail.com).
