December 2009 Quarterly

New This Quarter


The Wang: Erection Year - A Collection of Strips by Stan Yan
"What if Charlie Brown grew up?" is how Wade Busby of The Guide described Eugene Wang, the protagonist of Yan's graphic novel series, The Wang. "And what if Charlie Brown was Asian?" is the rhetorical question Yan dares to ask in this latest bound edition. The result is this attractive, square-bound collection -- a pu pu platter of inside jokes that give readers a flavor of what it is like to grow up as an Chinese-American in a white bread town like Denver, Colorado. In addition to the introduction of Dildo, Kristin's popular new pet wiener dog, story lines revolving around insider trading in the stock brokerage industry, ... and the US Presidential erection (ahem) election run of Eugene's college roomie and self-made motivational speaker, George, will leave readers full of laughter, and hungry for more an hour later.

ISBN/EAN13: 0975504185 / 9780975504185, 60 pg. b&w 8.25" x 6" book with color, square bound cover. Mature. $6.95 US. Shipping December 2009.

Would anyone be willing to split a table at the Comic Fest in Denver this coming April?
The current price is still a bit much for me and I would love to attend if I can share a table.
Let me know asap. Thanks.

I hope you were able to connect with someone. I don't know whether Karl got a hold of you, but it sounds like he may get a whole table. You might go to our website and try contacting Michael O'Keefe or Tanya Higgins and see if either has an interest. Jake Roth is another guy you might try, but I don't think there's a link to him on our site, and I'm unsure whether or not I have an e-mail address for him. Let me know if you have any success.

Oh, and maybe you can convince Lonnie to share a table with you -- he's currently not planning on attending, but maybe he can be encouraged to.

Yep. I'm from the class of '95, myself. Let me know about any Squidworks gatherings since I'm working in a vacuum here in Denver right now.

Not a problem. I'll try to remember to post meeting reminders here on Comic Space as well. I've only been e-mailing them out and I have to admit that I've been lax about checking into this account. If you'd like to make sure to get the updates go to our website at www.squidworks.com and click on "Contact Us" to have me add you to our e-mail list. ~Stan Yan

Hi Squiddy,

We Denverites gotta stick together. Yeah, I know I'm in Greeality now but I lived in Denver for 20 years so that still counts don't it? Anyway, thanks for dropping in.

Ah, once a Denverite, always a Denverite. We've got a few folks in our catalog that used to live here that moved away. But, if you're ever in this neck o' the woods on a second Sunday of the month, stop by our monthly meeting at Common Grounds (32nd & Lowell)
