Minneapolis Zine Fest 2008

IMG_2899

The Minneapolis Zine Fest happened a couple of weekends ago and it was pretty fun. The modest space of the SSCA was populated with zinesters, mini-comics artists, small press publishers and various denizens of the book arts. The walls were crammed full of historical zine artifacts. Most were generously loaned too the SSCA by the vast archives of the city of Mt. Holly. I took a few pictures. More pics and stories below the fold.

Mr. Mike talks about stuff
The Mayor of Mt. Holly didn't want to stop speaking.

Mr. Mikes Crap~O~Mat
The Crap~O~Mat represents the latest in zine dispensing technology. From the laboratories of Mt. Holly.

Rumps & Bulkheads
Mt. Holly researchers have been able to achieve a high level of zine miniaturization.

Mr. Mike & JP Coovert
The Mayor doesn't like it when top-secret ciphers go missing. JP Coovert plays innocent.

Will Dinski
Will Dinski shows off his high pressure sales tactics.

And there's more here.

Hungry for some Lutefisk Sushi?

Stwallskull reports that Lutefisk Sushi Bento boxes are now for sale online at the Altered Aesthetic website. As I mentioned before I participated in Lutefisk Sushi Bento Box C along with some 50 other Minneapolis cartoonists. These boxes were previously unavailable to 'out-of-towners.' Now, thanks to the miracle of modern technology, they can be had by all. I believe quantities are limited, so what are you waiting for?
