We received a very limited number  (OK, three)  of this year's CSA PGH 1/2 Share.  The total edition of these only runs to, we believe, 50 copies, so these are not your every day items.  THe main attraction here is Jim Rugg and Jasen Lex's Silhouette Zine.  We'll post a bit more about this item shortly.  Anyone interested in learning more is encouraged to contact us directly.

JIM RUGG's comics, drawings and designs critique and celebrate the popular consumer culture he grew up with -- comicbooks, wrestling, advertising, and VHS movies. His work includes Street Angel, Afrodisiac, Rambo3.5, Notebook Drawings, and the podcast, Tell Me Something I Don't Know (with Jasen Lex).http://jimrugg.com/

JASEN LEX is a designer and illustrator who makes comic books. Influenced by the cartoons, comics, and video games of the late 1970s and 1980s, his illustration style is a synthesis of these media, combining the dense backgrounds and fluid lines of traditional cell animation, with the side-scrolling structure of video games and the syncopated rhythm of panel-to-panel storytelling. He also co-hosts the podcast (with Jim Rugg), Tell Me Something I Don's Know on BoingBoing.net.http://jasenlex.com/

She has worked, designed, implemented and exhibited new media and public art in Europe, England, South America, the Caribbean and the US.
