I have been trapped in airline hell for the last 48 hours and am about to get on another plane for ROSE CITY COMIC CON tomorrow, so this is gonna be a brief one!!!!
If you’re in Portland, come on out! I have two panels! The first is a SPOTLIGHT ON CHIP ZDARSKY (ME) which will be hosted by smart guy Ben Saunders and is shaping up to be a lot of fun! The second is BUILDING NEW WORLDS WITH DSTLRY & LIVE DRAW which will ALSO be a lot of fun! Basically the weekend will be fun! What do you want from me?! It’s all I can do!!!!
Then I head to OAKLAND for the launch of TIME WAITS with my co-creator and Mangasplaining chum David Brothers at CAPE & COWL!
LOOKIT THESE HUNKS!!!
Nick Dragotta pointed out that it looks like David is sick of my shit, which, fair.
COME SEE US PLEASE
And holy shit when I finally get back to Toronto I have ANOTHER signing! This one at Treehouse Collectibles here in Toronto!
This one is with Jeff Lemire and Jason Loo, two cartoonists who looks up to me as a mentor. It’s nice to see them achieve such success!!!
Uh, what’s out this week…
BATMAN #152! Batman and Catwoman punching people IN SPAAAAAACE
and PUBLIC DOMAIN #8! Featuring the first appearance of the hottest new character!
Okay! See you in Portland! And Oakland! And Toronto!!! Fuck!!!!
Love,
Chip!

Chip, do you need me to bring any Tom Waits albums for you to sign at RCCC?
The beach scene in 152 was so gooodd. I know Catwoman's book is continuing, but do you plan on using her or even having a double date issue of your own?
Are any of your early stories like Monster Cops or Prison Funnies going to be republished or even put in a Zdarskibus? As a fan, I'd love to read the early stuff, especially if you're embarrassed about it.
