Philadelphia's Box Brown is on a mission to save the monthly 32-page comic book from extinction, and so has launched Retrofit Comics to do precisely that.  We just want to let customers know that Copacetic has signed up and will be stocking all issues as they are published, and the first three are now on the stands, here at Copacetic and around the world!  Believe it or not, there are books already scheduled clear through January of 2013, so there's plenty more to look forward to.  Check out this sophomore effort. #3) Bowman by Pat Auliso

Ms. Frakes took home this year's Ignatz for "Promising New Talent."  The award specifically cited Woman King in its announcement, so it is a winner by association.   We also have last year's Tragic Relief trade edition for the same special price.

Long suffering fans of the funny animal genre of comic books, one of the classic standard bearers of the comics tradition that has fallen by the wayside as of late, have much to rejoice with the release of this magical magazine size comic book that is clearly a labor of love.   Full color front and back covers, printed on heavy stock, contain 68 pages of comics and stories by the likes of Joe Lambert, Bryan Stone, Colleen Frakes, Penina and more, all entirely devoted to animal fun, and includes a lengthy essay on the history of the genre by none other than Mr. Steve "Swamp Thing" Bissette!  Learn more about the Funny Aminal gang, here.  Recommended (and, on special)!

A fun-filled fable told entirely in textless pantomime comics about a man, his mother, and his imagination, as he fills his days waiting for the real thing to come along.  This 80-page, 5" x 8", B & W, squarebound volume is by a Xeric grant-winning recent graduate of The Center for Cartoon Studies
