2018 SUMMER KOMIKON POST-KON POST

Firstly, thanx so much for everyone who turned up for this year's Summer Kon, and for all you mighty fine folk who passed by the Alamat table to pick up some 'Verse.
Quite simply: thank you.

And for everyone who turned out to support the official launch of the follow-up to The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo, The Black Bestiary: An Alejandro Pardo Compendium another round of thanx.
For everyone who shared their thoughts and enthusiasm, Pardo approves of you mightily!

I understand that deliveries to bookstores will be taking place next week, and I'll be posting any pertinent updates here, as well as any further links from the good people at Summit Books. Thanx again, guys!
And extra thanx to Reno and Mica for manning the Alamat table while I was off at the Summit booth for the book signing! Lifesavers!
And thanx to the Komikon crew as well, for yet another awesome Summer Komikon.

In case you haven't heard, The Black Bestiary: An Alejandro Pardo Compendium contains a new batch of creature entries (written by Budjette Tan), and a whole lot more narrative stuff, written by yours truly, with illustrations by Kajo Baldisimo, Bow Guerrero, and Mervin Malonzo.

Check out previews of some of the new creature entries here,* and check out the round-up post (which has some more BB-related links) here.

Hope all you mighty fine folk who weren't able to attend Summer Kon pick the book up at your favorite bookstore!
Let's all support the printed word, 'cause having that fresh new book in your hands, with that brand new imaginative territory just waiting to be explored... no other sensation quite like it...
Vive le livre! (Or something like that...)

you can’t drink just six,

Dave

* Just to clarify, while Kajo and Bow do have illustrations in BB, the art of the five creatures featured in the article are all by Mervin. (And, as noted on each image, all illustrations appear courtesy of Summit Books.)
