I’m posting this pretty late in the day because I’m busy getting ready for my appearances at the Licensing Show (where YOE! Studio will have a booth, #1549) and MoCCA Art Festival (where I’m speaking on Arf and also sharing a booth with the great Alexa Kitchen) and San Diego Comic Con (where I’ll be signing Arf books at the Fantagraphics booth). I’m hard at work preparing a special volume of Arf called Life is Short But Arf is Long just for these shows. This special Arf volume won’t be available in stores or from on-line retailers. More about that later. The point is, I’m under a lot of pressure.

But, not as much pressure as when “Doll Man Puts the Pressure on Tom Thumb”! Dave B. e-mailed this astounding art and points out, “I’ve never seen anything like this on a comic book cover before. You don’t have to use your imagination to see the symbolism this time”. Right you are, Dave! I trust this was worth the wait for Arf Lovers!
