All right.... No jokes about it.... It's short for Alternative Press Expo. A major comic book (and similar stuff) conference. I got there around 2:00pm and wandered there until 06:30... So, i just got off when i couldn't bear to stand. The place itself was quite interesting (a major warehouse made into a expo hall). there were there lots and lots of frustrated cartoonists (me included) But a lot of exibitors. There you could find the most horrible magazines (xerox of notebooks) to some masterpieces of the sequential art. I personally got Clive Barker's The Great and Secret Show Trade Paperback (the first 6 issues)
Great Stuff.... I already have read the book (i reeeealy dig clive barker's stuff. He's the creator of the hellraiser series, literature only, not movies. Spooky guy though.) I also found out this extremely indie comic called Martin, The Satanic raccoon, which is AWESOME. The writer is completely fucked up. I used to have this comic book back in Brazil, Toscomem (roughly translated to english as RoughMan or RudeMan). This guy does gore stuff just like i did 10 years ago (back in my 20ies).... If you like Gore, blasphemic, weird, etc. things, ya should check this guy out.
And i got also, something more intelligent, also really indie and "mental" as well. It's this N.Y. comic called TooMuch Coffee Man. I got the book called How to Be Happy, which actually i will read as soon as i finish this post here. This i recommend to ya'll just read a couple of strips in his site, most of then are quite funny, in a weird sense. The guy is very subtle in his jokes.... Here's one:
Well, this Really fed my brain today. (i mean yesterday...)
