It’s going to be a challenge, but I’m going to try and keep the hype for Lauren R. Weinstein‘s amazing new The Goddess of War to a minimum on this blog, even though it’s clearly the best adventure/science fantasy/romance/Western comic book released in years, if not ever. (I’m not biased.)
But just this once, here’s some TGoW-related news:
1. New York magazine presents a special preview excerpt!
2. Lauren has started a blog. (We’ll see how long that lasts. Enjoy it while you can.)
3. There will be a signing/release party for the book from 4 to 7 pm this Sunday, at Desert Island in Brooklyn, which will also feature the debut of a brand-new silkscreen print and a new window installation Lauren (& friends) created for the store.
4. There will be an even bigger signing/reading/performance on Tuesday night at Manhattan’s legendary Strand Bookstore, starting at 7.
5. And if you’re still not convinced, here are some good recent reviews of the book from Jog and Alex Cox.
6. And finally, as mentioned once before, the PictureBox site is currently featuring a photographic tour of her studio.
