Dave the Punk Rock Cat's Big Adventure: Page 20

Ooohhh… what a sad and drastic turn this already bizarre story took! Slightly autobiographical, not in the sense that I'm accusing Annie Lennox of stealing a song I supposedly wrote. Does this comic count as libel? CAN a comic be libel? i mean, by a nature, a comic is… well… comic. I am making light of a situation in a comic way. I'm not even necessarily saying that the events are true. It's like one of those stories some drunk rock and roller would tell you in a bar. “I TOTALLY wrote one of the most popular songs of the 1980's! But that BITCH Annie Lennox stole it from me! BARRFFFF”
So let me clarify, I am in no way trying to insinuate Annie Lennox is a plagiarist, in fact, I love Annie Lennox! Without revealing too much, I will admit she was my first celebrity crush, unless you count Chun Li, of Street Fighter fame, but I don't usually include her, because she's not a real person. But no, all I was trying to insinuate when I said this was autobiographical is that I know how much it sucks when the girls don't call back, especially the famous ones!
So! I had tried to make plans to go to Pride Weekend in SF, to try and represent the Lovebian brand. Sadly, I was not able to pull it together in time, but thankfully the rest of the Lovebian company was there in full force, representing themselves, and my designs :)
However, on a slightly more sour note, I am a little glad I wasn't there. Another friend of mine who WAS there had a close call with some erupting violence.
Here's a link for those of you who haven't read the news yet.

I got some paperwork back from Alternative Press Expo, I haven't read it all through yet, but there's some stuff I need to fill out. I may be celebrating prematurely, but I think I may have my table ^_^
So come this October, join me at my first ever exhibitor convention flying solo :) Help support the cause! Dave the Punk Rock Cat will surely be in print by then, and there's still plenty of Blood Will Tell ;-) Maybe shirts, and other wicked sick paraphernalia. In the mean time, I'll be drawing, and prepping, like hell!
