… but if I wanted to know more, I am sure that I could do worse than to wait for the arrival of ‘Hypo’, the forthcoming piece about the early life of famous hat-wearing Mr. President by artist Noah Van Sciver. I’m curious about this because, although I will admit to not yet purchasing a copy of his self-published comic ‘Blammo’ (available here), the work of his I have seen elsewhere (like this piece on Top Shelf 2.0) is rather good and has certainly piqued my curiosity. Here’s a page he posted recently on his blog that I re-post here, shamelessly, without permission but with attribution.
I should probably tell him.

Yesterday, with the help of my good friend Nick, Issue #2 finally made the journey from dusty folder to the scanner. Nick, who is better at this sort of thing than me, oversaw the long overdue scanning of the originals. I say overdue: I wrote and drew all of the content for this issue over the first half of 2008 (and someone clearly stole the intervening period of 18 months). Anyway, once the scans have been tidied up a little, we will collate them, print them, and then they will be available!
I’m hoping to be able sell these in a variety of different locations and when I know where these are (and if the nice vendors will have me) I will be sure to list them here on my equally dusty blog.
Here are some previews from the issue and a sneak preview of my Review of 2008 that I’m hoping to release as a free mini-comic for those who pick up Issue #2
