Morty Comix # 2648 -- Updated

 Here's the original comic when it was sent to Buzz Buzzizyk in Butler, Pennsylvania

 

Buzz has a practice of making a trial run "bootleg" copy, which he sends to me, and then enhances the original. This issue was his first try at this game, and as we'll see when subsequent issues are posted, this one is probably the most cautious. 

Buzz managed to distribute this one on a fridge in Pittsburgh. I love the fact my wonderful visit to Pennsylvania a few months back is extended in this manner!

Mike Hill Covers the Obscuro Bezango Show

Mike Hill of Worker Poet fame also performed a bit of photojournalism for the Rehm/Traffic/Buzzizyk Obscuro Bezango show in Pittsburgh's Future Tenant gallery. But unlike me, Mike uses a real camera and is an accomplished photographer! He has graciously given me permission to select a few of his photos. None of the artists wished to have their faces posted online, so I have to dance around that as I select:

Tom had cleverly hidden the part of the exhibit with my own comix art under that red covering until the last minute. I was touched-- and impressed by his stealth. It didn't make me feel so bad about hiding all those Morty Comix in his house!

That twisted face has scrawled on the reverse side something about the mysterious "Borpo Deets," who I am convinced was the mentor to all three artists in the show.

 

A break during the final stages of setup. My West Coast sensibility was prepared for massive humidity, but it actually was pretty nice the week I was there. Notice the Big Eyed Bean From Venus in the window. It was fun watching folks react to it as they walked by. 

 Opening night. Willis, Wayno, Chrislip
