The 2024 Holiday Season Is Nigh Upon Us
Posted on 22 November 14:11 (5 months ago)That's right! And, we're already getting underway, and have already set up our 2024 Holiday Gift Catalogue on which we are listing those 2024 releases that seem best suited for holiday gifts AND creating custom Copacetic Holiday Set Specials (a few of which are shown below). We will continue to add items and create new sets over the coming weeks, so check back. Also, especially when it comes to the custom Set Specials, keep in mind that some items are sure to sell out.
ALSO: We are in the process of creating a BLACK FRIDAY => CYBER MONDAY sale page which will feature some serious deals – but also, again, limitied quantities. The page will go up early on Friday (11/29) and come down late on Monday (12/2). So, heads up!

Comics >>> Made in Pittsburgh >>> Comics
Posted on 06 November 20:11 (6 months ago)The large majority of Nate McDonough's comics making has, thus far, taken place in Pittsburgh. His magnum opus, Longboxes began here in Pittsburgh, and is continuing in his new home in Durango, Colorado. The first Longboxes collection has just been released! It's a whale of a read at 288 pages. Don't miss it.
You can get an eyeful of Longboxes on our Tumblr post, HERE.
Cameron Arthur began his comics creating career in Texas, where all issues of his single-creator anthology title, Swag were created. Now, since relocating to Pittsburgh, he has embarked on the creation of a three-issue series Broken Wires. The first issue is out now! – and the second has just been completed and will soon be at the printer.
Get a taste of Broken Wires, from our Tumblr post, HERE.
Pittsburgh comics!
We hope that most frequenters of this space are already registered to vote and are planning to vote in the upcoming election. To anyone who is NOT registered –it may not be too late (but probably is; in Pennsylvania, the deadline to register to vote in this year's election was October 21). Go straight HERE to learn your state’s registration deadline. Rules and regulations do vary by state, but in most cases it’s fairly straightforward to register – and also to check on an existent registration. For example, if you've moved, you may have to update your voter registration.
Most of the information you need to get up to speed on voting in the 2024 elections is available at vote.org – a very helpful site that is a donor-supported 501 (c) (3) non-profit – and non-partisan.
If you’re a Pennsylvania resident and are unsure of your registration status, you can check it, HERE.
Don’t sit out this election! Voting is both a privilege and a responsibility.
AND, if you – and/or anyone you know – are still on the fence about voting and/or who to vote for, and are looking for convincing arguments regarding the candidates in the presidential election – either for yourself or to share – this new site, 270 Reasons, has some good ones, many written by people you may already be familiar with, like Anders Nilsen (whose argument is in comics form natch').
