MINTY LEWIS is unstoppable. Her third issue of P.S. Comics<\/a> has been nominated for not only the first annual Maisie Kukoc Award for Comics Inspiration<\/a>, but the prestigious Ignatz Award for Outstanding Mini-Comic<\/a> as well. The Maisie Kukoc award is a cash prize for mini-comics creators named for John Porcellino\u2019s late cat. If you\u2019ve been reading Minty\u2019s comics (and you should be) you know how fitting it is that her book was among the first nominees. Somewhere, her muse, Lucy, is smiling along with us.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Ignatz nominated people, we had the pleasure of finally meeting up with Edie Fake, the genius behind Gaylord Phoenix. Edie\u2019s been on our coast for a stretch, taking a break from his tatooing apprenticeship. We can pretty much guarantee you\u2019ve never seen comics like his and we are dying to have them on the site. You can take a gander at them here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In other news, Sam Gaskin<\/a> delivers. Having wrapped up his first collection, which will be the first Secret Acres book come the next APE, he\u2019s putting the finishing touches on Faux-Pas 5. You can pick up the newest Faux-Pas at SPX in about two weeks and they\u2019ll be here and everywhere after.<\/p>\n

Finally, it\u2019s fun having a web site. Sort of. Our apologies for the typos (you especially, Zo\u00eb<\/a>), which have since been fixed. And, to all you people not in North America, thank you for reminding us what a big, wonderful world it is, annoying customs forms and webstore bugs notwithstanding.<\/p>\n

We hope you\u2019ve enjoyed the first week of secretacres.com. Next week will be even more fun; promise.<\/p>\n
