I may have gone a little conspiracy theory on this map, but I'm curious as to the groups of name traders (poor Mississippi).

It's been a long and tiring year, hopping from zine fest to zine fest, but I'm not done yet. I'm finishing off the year at Zine Fest Houston on Nov. 15, and I can't wait! Hope to see you there to check out all the zines and comics I've been working on this year!
A poster for Zine Fest Houston at the Orange Show on November 15 from 12 to 6pm. In the middle of the poster a punk-rock pigeon stands in a spotlight. The pigeon is covered in sweat with a raised fist, screaming into a microphone "THIS ONE'S FREE PIGEON!"

FOUR ZINE FESTS AND A WEDDING (not my own). A pigeon runs down a street after a taxi, his hat flying off, his suitcase coming open and spilling all of his clothes and things behind him. The bottom of the image says "come catch me at" and includes squares for Denton Zine and Art Party (September 18 at Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studio in Denton, TX from 2 pm to 6 pm), ABQ Zine Fest (October 4 at the Special Collections Library in Albuquerque, NM from 11 am to 5 pm), Lone Star Zine Fest (October 11 and 12 at Blue Genie Art Bazaar in Austin, TX from 12 pm to 6 pm), and SLICE (October 18 at The Sheldon in St. Louis, MO from 10 am to 5 pm).

Do you make zines or comix? Do you have a new one you'd like to tell the world about? Do you want to do it outside social media? If you answered yes, submit to the next issue of the Carrier Pigeon Quarterly, a quarterly guide to zine and comix releases!

A poster for Chicago Zine Fest. A rat and pigeon stand on top of the Marina City complex. The pigeon says "We're gonna Yankee Hotel until we Foxtrot!" The rat replies "I think I'd rather Sufjan until I Stevens." Text reads Saturday, July 19, at Harold Washington Library, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. A sign reads "Come visit Passenger Pigeons Comics & More at table 36!"

Sometimes I draw something and instantly vibe with it. I'm really feeling this owl.
A comic panel with a young duck and pigeon standing at the door to an owl's house. The pigeon has a backpack and a propeller hat. The duck has a backwards-facing baseball cap. The owl looks tired and is wearing a toupee, a tie, and pants. The owl asks: "What do you want?" The duck answers: "Mr. Neighbor Owl, Jay took Milo's Gameboy. Can you help get it back?"

I made a fanzine about why you should stop what you're doing, sit down, and put on the Young Pope. Also partly about why I didn't like Conclave.

If you see this, post your green art! 🟩
A collage with a frog, waterfall, palm fronds, and bold shapes. A collage of a woman in a pale turquoise coat and hat holding a giant crab apple branch. A collage of a horse, turkey, and oyster with human bodies. A collage of a forest-surrounded lake.
