Sunday morning conversation

Steve and I were discussing once again the merits of pdfs vs plain scans for his blog. The following bit of dialogue occured:

Sarah: You are such a contrarian.
Steve: No I'm not!

There was a long pause. Then we burst into hearty laughter.

Stevetreads # 1

1st edition, 1987, Chico, California : Jeff Nicholson. 3 copies, regular digest size.

That's right, only 3 copies.

The hopefully-not-really-retired-from-comix-for-life cartoonist Jeff Nicholson, creator of Ultra Klutz, Through the Habitrails, Colonia, and Father and Son published a 4-issue short run of this "bootleg" Stevetreads series to fill out his own collection.

I believe everything in this first issue has already been scanned and posted here in various places.

We'll be seeing quite a bit of Jeff's work down the road when I reach the part of the backlog containing our Ultra Klutz jam.

Hmm, I see a cat hair got into the scan of the final page. That makes it a cat scan, right? I guess I should've stopped the machine by hitting the paws button. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

Tedious

A self-publishing whine:

The collating, stapling and folding of the 20th century has become the scanning and posting of Century 21.

And both activities are tedious.

That is all. You may now go about your day.
