VanCAF this weekend!

Vancouverites! I will be appearing at this weekend's Vancouver Comic Arts Festival -- a free to attend comics event that you will definitely not want to miss! VanCAF is always a blast, and Andrea Demonakos and the TCAF crew -- who took over running the event after my partner-in-crime Shannon retired as showrunner last year -- are going to do a swell job keeping this party rolling.

You can find me at table H3 in the gymnasium half of the exhibition. I will have a bunch of cool S&F swag, as well as a few con-exclusive specials. Come say hi!

We return on Monday with a new comic. See you then!

If you're looking for a refresher on Fig Pig's creation, the answers are in our Trade Secrets story! Short version: he was created at stationery conglomorate Sanpresto -- one of Natalie Grave's companies -- in an attempt to create a living version of their Hello Kitty-esque mascot. But it's a fun story to read in its entirety if you haven't before!

This weekend, I will be appearing once again at the Vancouver Comic Arts Festival! I hope to see lots of you there, Vancouverites.

Book Preorders and Patreon Goodies

Two notes of note today, team!

First of all, today's the last day to get your preorder in for my new books! I've seen the preview copies, and they look very swanky. And Missing Inaction is full of a ton of exclusive bonuses, including commentary and concept art, Butcher and Baker comics, Malcolm's Conspiracy Blog, and a big (colour!) art gallery!

And second, all of our May Patreon rewards are now available to Patreon backers! As always, there's wide assortment fun bonuses you can get depending on your backer level, including a new poll to vote in, a new issue of our e-magazine, new Art Vault updates, and a pair of new pin-ups for the Saucy Hippo tier. (Including a goofy mermaid-themed piece from Jess for "Mer-May", which is apparently a thing.)

We return on Wednesday for our next comic. See you then!
