Cole Closser's Cartoon Cavalcade

Another place to post pitchurs an' pieces
I recently had th’ somewhat dubious honor o’ co-editing (with R. Sikoryak and James Sturm) a collection of the saddest strips we could cull from the communities of The National Cartoonists Society and The Center for Cartoon Studies.  It’s now off to the presses.The Cartoon Crier is printed on newsprint in the tabloid format, and packed to the brim with morose and melancholic cartoons (old and new) from:
Ivan Brunetti, Patrick McDonnell, James Kochalka, Lynn Johnston, Bill Griffith, Michael Kupperman, Greg and Mort Walker, Anders Nilsen, Brendan Burford, Jim Rugg, Tom Gammill, Jeffrey Brown, Greg Evans, Melissa Mendes, Blaise Larmee, Bil Keane, James Sturm, R. Sikoryak, yours truly, and many other members of the NCS and CCS communities.  It’s a sadstravaganza!  Gitcher cryin’ pants on and join the pity party!The Center for Cartoon StudiesThe Cartoon CrierThe Cartoon Crier will be available first (and free) at MoCCA on April 28th.  It will also be available as a free download on May 1 from the website of The Center for Cartoon Studies.  Whoot.
