If you're in NYC or have friends who are, we're hosting an inherently small party at Hey Kids Comics! (a very small shop) on Monday, December 12 from 6-9pm. James Romberger & Josh Bayer will be on hand to sign stuff and talk comics & punk rock. Please spread the word!
We're also working on a Chicago event! Details coming... soon.
