I’m signing books Sat&Sun afternoons at Fantagraphics booth, plus this:
APE 2010 Programming
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16
5:00-6:00 Spotlight on Tony Millionaire—APE special guest Tony Millionaire, the mad genius behind Sock Monkey, Maakies, and Drinky Crow, talks with fellow APE special guest Renée French about his career in comics and his wild life. Here’s a hint: Tony will be the one in the fancy tuxedo. The guy will really class up the joint.
6:00-7:00 Spotlight on Renée French—A conversation between APE special guest Renée French and publisher/comics historian Dan Nadel about Renée’s new book, H Day. How does a cartoonist translate something as abstract as a migraine into the concrete form of a book? And why? Renée will talk about this challenge, her drawing process, and will briefly look back at her extraordinary career.
Tuxedo!? You should wear an ape suit.
That would be “smashy,” or “crashy,” not “classy.”
If I had a gorilla suit you’d have to beat me to get it off… that’s different on the page to how I thought…
WHAT A WONDERFUL TIME I HAD IN SAN FRANCISCO!
Thanks to everyone who helped me, paid my bills, hosted me; I only hope my excellent entertainment in all venues, stages, hallways, elevators and Dan and Erika’s living room was adequate payback. APE is the only comics convention worth seeing if you love real comics. Amazing.
