I am just pleased as punch to announce the release of OPT11, which as you might suspect contains all Optimist comics published in the year of Our Lord 2011. It will be premiering at the Maine Comics Arts Festival this weekend, and is available for sale on this site NOW. 52 pages, black and white, glorious looking, five dollars.

<-- Look at the psychotic cover. NEAT!

Here is a fictionalized scenario of what will not be happening up in Portland at the Maine Comics Arts Festival this Sunday, May 20th. I’ll be sharing a table with the talented Matt Smith! Our friend Cara Bean will also be there! Kate Beaton will also be there! Other people will also be there! You should endeavor to also be there! I hear there’s a restaurant up there that cooks everything in duck fat.
