Your Brain On Latino Comics- Pablo’s Inferno

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

I just received word that YOUR BRAIN ON LATINO COMICS has hit the shelves! This is an extensive effort by Professor Frederick Luis Aldama, who set out to capture thoughts from many of the Latino creators involved in the field of comic books. It was one of the most thorough investigations anyone has ever done about the inner workings of my comic book, PABLO’S INFERNO. YOUR BRAIN ON LATINO COMICS also has my buddies, Javier Hernandez from EL MUERTO and Rafael Navarro of SONAMBULO, among many other creators. It is available in hardback or paperback and is nicely discounted on the following link that is direct from the publishers. Here’s the cover and an excerpt from my segment:

Cupcakes and Crafts

Monday, May 11th, 2009

I was invited by a friend to an event today in Brooklyn where there would be free cupcakes and crafts. Cupcakes and crafts?!- I’m there!

Tucked in a labyrinth-of-a-warehouse was a nice-sized space loaded with enough felt, textiles, string, glue, scissors, markers, button-making machines, googley-eyes, and crayons to make a kindergarten class tremble. Oh, and of course, there were cupcakes! It was a lot of fun sitting alongside others who enjoy making things and enjoy eating cupcakes, it was a great formula. This is what I left there with, it isn’t much, but it made me happy.
