SECRET ACRES is exhausted. After an action-packed, booze-soaked, smoke-filled weekend in Bethesda, Maryland, at SPX<\/a>, we’re finally back in New York, collecting our wits and jonesing something awful. If you were there and we missed you, we miss you still.<\/p>\n

We did manage to say hi to some of our favorite people: Jamie Tanner<\/a>, the Closed Caption Comics <\/a>gang, Alec Longstreth, Randy Chang of Bodega<\/a>, the Beat’s Heidi MacDonald<\/a>, T. Edward Bak and pretty much everyone remotely associated with the Center for Cartoon Studies<\/a>. Without you, we may have gotten a good night’s sleep.<\/p>\n

Most impressively, not one, but two Secret Acres people grabbed a brick for their excellence at the Ignatz Awards on Saturday. Minty Lewis won hers (like there was ever a doubt) for Outstanding Mini-Comic for P.S. Comics #3<\/a>, and Papercutter #6<\/a> (featuring a story by Ken Dahl) picked up an Ignatz for Outstanding Debut. We couldn’t be happier for Minty and Ken (and Ken’s co-contributors in Papercutter #6: Alec Longstreth<\/a>, Julia Wertz and Laura Park).<\/p>\n

In Emporium news, we finally have copies of Ken Dahl’s Monsters #1<\/a> and Monsters #2<\/a> for sale. Theo Ellsworth’s long-awaited and truly amazing new issue of Capacity<\/a> has arrived and is available now. And next week, we’ll have JB’s latest and all-new and bigger-than-ever Curio Cabinet. Oh, and there\u2019s this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Okay. Nap time.<\/p>\n
