It's 502, Time To...

Comic Mashup Theater is proud to present,
In honor of the new Washington State Law, I-502,
As of Dec 6th it is legal to possess small amounts of marijuana.
Fire up the comic bongs!

Unfortunately, there are no legal places to buy marijuana in Washington State, yet!
Bummer...
But it is a good start.
Hopefully the Feds will leave the state alone on this issue.

New Comic full of Frivolous Frivolity

I'm pretty excited to announce that my newest comic book, Giga-Geekery #1: Emperor Jack's Day Off, is making its debut right here!  Ta-Ta-Dah!  That was a horn flourish...

It is the story of how Emperor Jack tries to beat the Monday Blues by taking a day off.
He leaves a plate of Eggs and Toast to run the government while he is away, and amazingly, his breakfast does a pretty good job while he is away having fun adventures.  And it is written, penciled, inked, colored, lettered, printed, stapled and folded by me, Jay Larsen.

You Can Read a Preview of Giga-Geekery #1 by Clicking Here!

You Can Buy a Copy at our Etsy Store by Clicking Here!  Only $3.00!

I Took On a Challenge

I took on a challenge and the challenge took November.

There is this November Novel Writing thing every year where people try to write a novel in one month.
I decided to write, draw, letter and publish a comic book in one month, November.
This November.  So I have been really busy (self inflicted) but I almost have a comic book finished, so there is that!
No, I did not make a Godzilla comic.
I made an Emperor Jack comic!

More on that later.  There are still a few days in November left...

Don't Get Consumed By Consumption

If you must shop on Black Friday, be safe.
And enjoy those leftovers!

Coffee Hero of Canton Greeting Card

Just finished designing a new Coffee Hero Greeting Card just in time for Geek Fest 2012, a concert and vendor fair put on by Seattle Browncoats Charities. 
The show will be in Shoreline, WA this year, and it has expanded to two full days.

Shoreline Conference Center, 18560 1st Ave NE, Shoreline, WA 98155 on December 15 & 16, 2012. Hours: Saturday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Sunday: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.

This Coffee Hero Card available in our LarsenGeekery Etsy Store and we will be bringing some to the show.

This year is also the 10th Anniversary of Firefly, the Joss Whedon TV Show that featured the irascible Jayne Cobb, the Hero of Canton and owner of the most famous hat in all of Geekdom, the Jayne Hat. 

I hope the Browncoats like the design.

And although Jayne Cobb drinks his coffee with Xiongmao Niao, I don't recommend it.  Only Mudders drink that stuff.

Ah, the Good Old Days

Gotta love those old comic books.
Books where the artists were under paid and in a real big hurry.
And the writers were just bat-shit crazy.
Check this out:

"There was one savant who was consumed with the desire to know that secret which the world considered unknowable...and in his own laboratory he nurtured what was to become his master!"

Wow!  That is some purple prose!
What editorial force made him write that?

Get Ready for Geek Fest

LarsenGeekery will be vending at Geek Fest 2012, a concert and vendor fair put on by Seattle Browncoats Charities. 
The show will be in Shoreline, WA this year, and it has expanded to two full days.

Shoreline Conference Center, 18560 1st Ave NE, Shoreline, WA 98155 on December 15 & 16, 2012. Hours: Saturday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Sunday: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.

We attended the show last year and had a great time.  Listened to great Geek Music and did some Christmas shopping for the geeks in our lives (and there are lots of them, let me tell you).  This year we are excited to be showing our complete line of Geekery Art and Gear.

The Browncoats are a fan group based around the popular show and movie Firefly (and Serenity) by Joss Whedon.  

Proceeds from this year’s event will support Urban Rest Stop, which provides shower and laundry facilities to those in need, and Food Lifeline, which feeds the hungry in western Washington.

So make plans to go to the show.  And wear your Jayne Hat!

Sam's Tattoo

Here is a pic of Sam's great Big Barda tattoo.

And the sketch I did for her at Bellingham Comicon.

Bellingham ComiCon was a Blast!

Went to Bellingham ComiCon last Saturday and had a Blast!

For an artist, there is nothing like having people pay you to take home your art.
So as an artist, I would like to thank the people who took a liking to my doodles and took them home last Saturday.
I got asked to draw some commission sketches live at the show:  Carlos wanted a Hal Jordan Green Lantern.  So here he is, coming at ya!

And Sam had a really cool tattoo of Jack Kirby's Big Barda.  So she asked me to make her a Big Barda she could frame and put on her wall.  Drawing Kirby characters is always a blast.  I love that old-school 4-color comic look.

Sold a bunch of my new Greeting Cards and some Posters.
And I also sold a bunch of my 5x7 mini watercolors.
Drew a couple of new ones during the show as well: Kite flying monsters and a Scarlet Witch that just turned Doctor Doom into a pumpkin for Halloween.

I hope everybody enjoys their art as much as I enjoyed making it.

I have more photos of the show at LarsenGeekery.com
Oh, and I got interviewed for the local news as well.  Go read the article at Komo News.
And Evelyn sold a lot of her bags and pouches as well.

Pretty exciting all the way around.
A well run show with a great bunch of vendors and artists, and lots of really great fans.
Thanks to everybody involved with the show.
I am already looking forward to next year.
