BREAKING NEWS for those like me who didn’t know; YES, we have turkey vultures along the river in Minneapolis! Oh, and yeah, Cataract Quarterly or whatever.

(Yeah, yeah, I mean “readymade art,” not automatic art.) The ugly and the beautiful. The sculptural and the hostile. The problematic and the fascinating. The whole place feels like a monument to contradiction.

This Saturday and Sunday 12-4pm at I’ll be tabling at the FLOP Small Press Comix Show. Yeah, no, I know that Cataract Quarterly isn’t really a comic book, but it’s not really a “book” book either. I think it’ll be fine. Brad said it was okay for me to be there.

So come by and say hi!
