Good day to all you adoring Gatherers and Grand Geeks of the cosmos! Here in my tiny little corner of Southern California it becomes warmer day by day. The need for hot coffee or cocoa lessens and the desire to be outside under the cool shade of a tree or by the side of a pool increases. But one thing always remains the same…the desire for my indie label comic books! So let’s get right to it, shall we?!
