New Stuff This Week

With C2E2 last week we were too busy to post new stuff, as the gentleman below would agree. Ah, the  lonely life  of a super hero.

So here’s the new stuff post this week but a day early, because we won’t have time to post it tomorrow. Lucky you! The weekly Top 10 posts will resume as usual on Tuesday.

But first, here’s some news:

Chicago Zine Fest started today! How exciting! Be here at Quimby’s tonight, Fri 3/25 9pm, 1854 W. North Ave for ZINESTER KARAOKE…And the winner of the Long Arm Stapler Award will be announced!

Don’t miss the rest of Chicago Zine Fest tomorrow at 1104 S. Wabash.
