The book is drawn in a few different styles, which aren't showcased in these pages. A lovely review was done here if you want to see inside.

The Blossoming City's first pages. I wasn't going to offer online sales, but I was able to ship one over the border recently, and feel fairly confident it's safe for single issues. 24 pages, full color. $10 US shipping from Japan included. Payable through PayPal. #altcomix

I’m saddened to hear this. He was still making vital music until the very end.

Hot off the press today, the English version of The Blossoming City (part 1)

The English one is a very limited run of 50, before the Japanese edition comes out next year.

That was the one I would have liked

What a day.
I took my kid bowling. In the gacha machines, they had Bowie pins, and I got Low; my second choice, but the coolest one.
I got my second highest ever bowling score, then beat it by a point third game.
Then I had good Hakata ramen.
And I had a great day with my kid.

Hey, I got to script, draw and color the Fury meets Spacehawk story in that. I hope you dig it! Thanks for your generosity in sharing your characters, they deserve to live on!

Got out the brush and ink last weekend to do some Sunday funnies
