CCS Deep Girl Exhibition Recap
Before I launch into my CCS recap, I want to announce (loudly, boisterously) that Paper Rocket will be at Comic Arts Brooklyn this Saturday. CAB is Brooklyn’s newest, most anticipated comics festival. The show is managed by my boss, Gabe Fowler of Desert Island. I’m super excited! I had a sweet, but way too short…

Free Shipping on New Titles!
I did some number crunching this morning. I’m trying to find out how I can make distribution affordable, which means knowing the true cost of production (down to each staple).

Printing Deep Girl, Day 2 and 3
Tuesday and Wednesday were what I like to call a “printing coma.” Meaning I cut off ties to the outside world and spent all day printing in my pajamas. I’ll admit, these screens gave me troubles I had to re-expose them so many times! But I finally got two good screens, and the printing went…

Printing Deep Girl, Day 1
I started printing today. My first step was to print the inner covers. It was just one color; no registration this time. Piece of cake! Well, the screen was a little tricky. Ariel’s lines were a bit fine. I had to bump them up a bit.
