Howdy Bluesky! What a difference a week makes! Bright and sunny and warm over here at the Picnic. I was wrong about HOTC last weekend, but I'm not today! Team multi-modal and micro-mobility is the best way to come visit us with Mem Drive and some of the Square shut down to car traffic. Peace

Howdy Bluesky! What's good? We've got Honk! Fest and Head of the Charles today, so public transit, micro-mobility, and personal perambulation are the best ways to come see us today.

Yesterday I spent time at one of my favorite places, talking to owner/all-around wonderful person Tony Davis. Even after a decade away, I still think of it as a third place. Grateful for independent bookshops and the people who make them what they are. See you soon, @myp-comics.bsky.social.

While I am OVERJOYED at the level of enthusiasm for FREE PLANET vol 1 this far ahead of its release, I would much prefer that you order it from your local comic shop or independent bookstore.
All the usual reasons PLUS: Doing so indicates existing enthusiasm and the need to stock up!
