PictureBox's new site has started syndicating new True Chubbo strips,a collaborative comic by newlyweds Tomomi Fujimaru and Prison For Bitches contributor Ray Sohn. It's a hilarious strip about being in a relationship, with a heta-uma art & gag style that weirdly makes it one of the most romantic comics I've read; the sexual negotiating and interracial faux-racism teasing between Ray and Tomomi is rugged but also really cute & relatable to me. Is that strange?
This is must read stuff!! Here are just a few strips to check out; I posted previously a longer collection of True Chubbo comics when it was featured on Viceland last year:
Also relevant is Ray's recent post, A Brief Survey Of Heta-uma Style Depictions Of The Penis, featuring Same Hat favorites Hanakuma and Nemoto.
This week marks the release of the final volume in the Scott Pilgrim comix era, with a busy burst of events in Toronto being orchestrated by The Beguiling... followed by a massive SP marketing explosion at SDCC leading into the Edgar Wright film release next month. It's sorta insane.
Turns out that two EAZB crew members got tapped to create works for all this crazy business.I hope (assume?) both prints will be available afterward via ppl's respective sites?
PS: Did I mention that my sorta boneheaded local comic shop started selling copies of Scott Pilgrim last week before the official release date? I snagged a copy before Oni got wind of it and SHUT 'EM DOWN. (!!!)i'm pretty sure i'm allowed to post this! i drew this for James Stokoe's excellent Image Comics series "Orc Stain."I hear the 4th issue comes out this week; I've been loving most everything from this series so far and really stoked to see such a lush and ambitious (but straight-forward!) series coming out regularly. Oh shit, and DeForge is the one that got me into the book, how fitting!
Illustration dynamo HARVEYJAMES™ is selling commissions for the next two weeks at amazing prices. I'm ordering one today and you should too! Here are the details from his livejournal post:

then, you can choose any of the following optional extras: +$6 to add inksIt's time for another round of I DRAW YOUR SHIT, a series of posts where we all create fan art of a specific character or topic. This time, we're not tackling the character(s) of someone in the EAZB family... we're going to do fan art of Janelle Monáe!
Now, I contend that while Monáe is really amazing there's not quite enough cultural zeitgeist, global conversation and imagery yet to feed an entire fanzine like the Gaga-themed PRISON FOR BITCHES. But we're all getting really into her, and getting the urge to draw so she makes a perfect candidate for our latest IDYS!


















EAZ friend Lamar Abrams has been posting tons of hilarious sketches and strips on his Flickr lately!

Giant Robot is proud to present Two Girls; One Show, a group art show featuring new works by Aiyana Udesen and Lisa Hanawalt. Aiyana Udesen graduated from the San Francisco Art Institute in 2003. She resides in San Francisco and works on art daily. When she is not making instructional diagrams about drawing celebrities, she can be found staring at her succulent garden, pondering the beauty in the details of nature. (She also is a founding member of an art gang called the Future Colors of America, along with Matt Furie and Albert Reyes.) For the show, Udesen promises "a bunch of '80s celebrity/small animal/crystal mash-ups," mostly in pencil and colored pencil, complemented by "some 'painting cats' pieces." Lisa Hanawalt is a Bay Area artist transplanted to Brooklyn. The second issue of her comic book, I Want You, is about to be released by Buenaventura Press, and recurring themes in her work include anthropomorphic animals that are simultaneously cute and creepy, attractive and repulsive. For the show, Hanawalt is making approximately 30 drawings ranging from medium to postcard-sized and smaller, in watercolor, ink, and markers. "I'm continuing to work with the same themes I've been focused on for the last few years, and also dipping into the imagery of plane wrecks, car crashes and other modern phobias," she says. "A lot of these drawings will be in color, which is a new direction for me!"
