APE 2005 : Alternative Press Expo Day 1 Wrapup

So I managed to attend the Alternative Press Expo here in San Francisco on Saturday for the third or fourth year now. The artists were great as always, though the talks were not as good this year. Here are the finds of the show, in my opinion. If you see something you like, check out the author's site and let him or her know, or buy something.

Those are amazing,
but that first one is fucking scary.

One final find at APE was the work of Danny Roberts. I was going to add him in here, but his website was down. Go ahead and check out Damned Ink Studios

Check out his (Danny Roberts) gallery of The Injured, it's really impressive.

i totally just read the whole comic book here by your number 6 person. i'm not the hugest fan of the style or the writing, but i was still totally engrossed by it. possibly in part because it was a better option than index coding.

Page #5 (Brad Silverman) is paying homage to Daisy Kutter, who was originally conceived by Kazu Kibuishi. Kazu is the artist I was telling you about who drew "Copper" and "Clive & Cabbage". (Rabbit & Cabbage from my poor memory)

Page 4 and here's a link to the real Daisy Kutter
