Here's a heads up that we just unearthed a nice stash of early Eightball issues – ALL first prints.
Copacetically priced. HERE (along with plenty more... from the archives!)
The Copacetic Mail Room will be on hiatus from Saturday, September 12 through Tuesday, September 15.
So, orders placed after 8am Saturday (9/12) will ship on Wednesday, September 16.
Apologies for the delay.
Albert Einstein, Conceptual Comics Artist
Check it out: the greatest thinker of the Twentieth Century did his thinking... in comics! Food for thought.
'What, precisely, is "thinking"? When, at the reception
of sense-impressions, memory-pictures emerge, this is
not yet "thinking." And when such pictures form series,
each member of which calls forth another, this, too, is
not yet "thinking." When, however, a certain picture
turns up in many such series, then — precisely through
such return — it becomes an ordering element for such
series, in that it connects series which in themselves are
unconnected. Such an element becomes an instrument,
a concept- I think that the transition from free associa-
tion or "dreaming" to thinking is characterized by the
more or less dominating role which the "concept" plays
in it. It is by no means necessary that a concept must
be connected with a sensorily cognizable and reproducible
sign (word); but when this is the case thinking becomes
by means of that fact communicable.’

Mail Room Vacation: 7/31 - 8/7
Yes, that's right, it's another summer break for the packing and mailing department here at Copacetic.
So, orders placed after 8:30am on Friday 31 July 2026 will not ship until Saturday 8 August 2026.
Our apologies for the delay.
Tsuge Yoshiharu Is In the House
For the first time since his passing earlier this year, we have the full complement of all extant volumes of the D & Q collections of Tsuge Yoshiharu (there's at least one more to go).
Full disclosure: Red Flowers is out of print – and going for quite high prices at the moment – so our price, while reasonable by comparison, is nonetheless a "collector's item" price. For those who are patient and/or on a budget, we feel confident that D & Q will reprint this one at some point
