have you picked up the new gumby comic book yet? ~
issue #2 from papercutz is a special treat for an art lover like prickle, or myself! check out the full cover, set around renoir's luncheon with the boating party, which i posted about only days ago here ~
i'm happy to share with you my copy which is signed by jeff whitman, writer of this story called 'goo's gone' ~
gumby & prickle can't find goo & they think she's in paris, so off they go to look for her ~
here's an art panel showcasing points of interest on their trip, that's the eiffel tower carousel, monet's bridge, & you'll recognize ludwig bemelman's madeline & company out for a stroll ~
jeff's gumby stories are like new classics & i wouldn't be surprised if he ends up writing for the new gumby adventures we keep hearing rumors about with the henson company ;) (hint: snap him up, joe!) ~
& just look who's back in 'the sour note' by mike kazaleh! henry, rodgy, the sour note, & paul plunk :D back from the 60s, man! ~
'all that nin-jazz' by sholly fisch is solid fun, & artist, jolyon yates is back, this time along with ryan jampole ~
now there's G-mail included, & hey! guess who wrote a letter!! also, check out the fan art by shibe fox ~
the newly remastered gumby movie is out in just days in a cool collectible gumby head box, & remember you can also preorder the new art clokey retrospective book that will be available at xmastime ~
finally, just a note, my usual comic book store guy forgot to order this comic book issue in time so i have a couple more copies i'll receive in around 10 more days, & waiting is Not toxic's strong point, so be sure to tell your local comic book store that you want your gumby comics! ~
