‘Simone & Ajax’ — All in Color on Thursdays!

‘Simone & Ajax’ — All in Color on Thursdays!

Looking for Simone & Ajax by Andrew Pepoy?  My, don’t you have excellent taste!  We’ve been running classic episodes every Saturday of the adventures of the plucky young woman and her friend, the four-foot tall dinosaur since ComicMix began publishing comics.  

But wait, there’s more!  Starting this Thursday, we’ll have brand-new stories in full-color!  The Adventures of Simone and Ajax join our weekday line-up (Demons of Sherwood, GrimJack: The Manx Cat, EZ Street and Jon Sable, Freelance: Ashes of Eden), beginning with Simone & Ajax: The Maltese Duck.

As for today’s comics delight, we’re giving you a special treat: the last chapter of Timothy Truman’s The Black Lamb – all here at ComicMix, and as always, for free!

Simone and Andrew In Snoopy Land

Simone and Ajax‘s daddy Andrew Pepoy did an interview at the Schulz Museum (yep, that Schulz!) and the good folks at www.comicscoasttocoast.com have it up in their latest podcast. This is your opportunity to hear Andrew the way we here at ComicMix do: actually speaking words from his mouth to your ears. It’s quite remarkable.

And since I have your attention, I should point out Andrew’s hard at work at his all-new full color Simone and Ajax graphic novel… soon to debut right here at ComicMix!

The holiday heat is finally cooling down and I can finally take the headphones off and sit back with a frosty iced tea and gather up all the news and notes from this week’s round of Big ComicMix Broadcasts:

• Even though Andrew Pepoy’s performance of The Hourglass in the Stop Time Chronicles has passed, the comic book based show itself continues from the Chicago Tap Theater. Get more info of upcoming events here.

 

• To get info on the advance release of the Ultimate #100 Project trade pb (featuring all 100 versions of that cover), plan on being at Wizard World Chicago – OR get info from The Hero Initaiative here. Remember you cab always order it from your retailer as well in the September Previews.

• The rebirth of Nexus is coming very soon – and there is a lot of preview material here, including a chance to join the NEXUS ARMY!

Stargate fans can preview the film written and produced by the cast and crew here. You can also get a copy of A Dog’s Breakfast at ITunes or Amazon Unbox.

• Don’t forget to check out Danielle Corsetto’s Girls With Sling Shots, updated three times a week – right here. Look for GWS coming to a comic shop soon as well.

Starting next week, we begin our Countdown To San Diego on the Big ComicMix Broadcasts. It’s arguably the nation’s biggest pop culture event (or as some call it, “The Geek Prom”), so don’t miss out. We’ll also have more summer reading tips, a big ol’ pile of new comics and DVDs to preview – and this little movie about some Boy Wizard! 

Rest up – you’re gonna need it!

Tap-Crazy Superheroics in Chicago

There’s really nothing to add to Andrew Pepoy’s news aboug The Hourglass in the Stop-Time Chronicles. I mean, really, what can you say about a super-hero tap opera? Click on the link for more details. Dang, I wish I were in Chicago for this one.

And if you want to get your full Pepoy fix, he notes " I also inked Radioactive Man #711, available at 7-11 stores starting today as a promotion for the Simpsons movie."  Just look for the spinner rack beside the Squishie machines!

You’ve been Boing-Boinged!

You’ve been Boing-Boinged!

Keep an eye on your bandwidth, comics folk — if Cory Doctorow or Mark Frauenfelder or any other contributor to the must-read "Directory of Wonderful Things" site Boing-Boing notice you, your traffic may just bounce into the stratosphere.

So far in the past couple days, Cory’s briefly reviewed the new Jack of Fables collection (which should make Andrew Pepoy very happy – remember that name, you’ll be seeing a lot more of Andrew in the near future on ComicMix!) and Mark has recommended three comic art books, including Matt Madden’s 99 Ways to Tell a Story.  So far all the links have gone to the Amazon offerings of the books, but authors should still beware of the Google effect…
