SECRET ACRES IS OFF TO SPX<\/a>, the Small Press Expo in Bethesda, MD, this weekend. It’ll be your first chance to get copies of Theo Ellsworth’s epic Capacity<\/em>, along with a limited edition, signed, full-color poster. It may also be your only chance to get Theo to sign and doodle on your book! Ordinarily, Theo is in Portland, Oregon, so this will be a special opportunity for his East Coast fans to say hello. For those of you who can\u2019t make it to SPX, take heart: Theo’s Capacity<\/em> and poster will shortly be shipping with a special bundle deal for both.<\/p>\n

Secret artist Ken Dahl<\/a> will also be at SPX debuting the third issue of his Ignatz Award winning Monsters series. If you haven’t yet purchased his awesome collection of early comics, Welcome to the Dahlhouse<\/em><\/a>, SPX would be an excellent time to do so.<\/p>\n

This Friday night, on SPX eve, we’ll be at Atomic Books<\/a> in Baltimore with Sparkplug Comic Books<\/a>, Bodega<\/a>, Dark Horse Comics<\/a> and Picturebox<\/a> for an all-star “SPXplosion” celebrating Atomic Books’ sweet sixteen. There will be refreshments. There will be wall-to-wall comics people. There Will be Blood. You will submit. Read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Sparkplug, Secret Acres congratulates our friends at Sparkplug Comic Books on their six Ignatz nominations! Wooooooo!<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there have been many additions to the Emporium<\/a>: Theo’s Thought Cloud Shrines<\/a> is back in stock, Secret Acres\u2019 own Rob Jackson<\/a> shipped us his new comic, On the Banks of the Mighty Croal<\/a> and we are now carrying several comics by Leslie Anne Mackenzie Stein<\/a>, including the latest issue of her Eye of the Majestic Creature<\/a>, plus an untitled comic by Blaise Larmee<\/a>. Speaking of Blaise Larmee, we’re serializing his haunting new story, Ghosts<\/a>, in Small Plates<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lastly, but mostly, Secret Acres is pleased to announce that our comics will be carried by Diamond Distribution<\/a>. If your favorite comic shop isn’t carrying our books, tell ’em to order them through Diamond!<\/p>\n

Your Pals-at-Arms,<\/p>\n
