I have the SCOOP!

Martha is bored of writing about me me me, so now Martha is going to write about Esther Pearl Watson. Martha likes being creepy and writing in the third person. Eww just creeped myself out. Stopping now.

So the scoop is that Fantagraphics is going to publish a book version of Esther's super popular Unlovable comic. This is groovy news! Hells yeah.

You can see Unlovable in every issue of Bust Magazine. It was also chosen by Harvey Pekar (American Splendor) and Anne Elizabeth Moore the "The Best American Comics" anthology released by Houghton Mifflin. It is a smart, funny, sweet and sour comic. If you don't know about it you might be slightly uncool, but now you do so that makes you slightly cool again. Lucky for you.

This is a picture of Esther working hard (or hardly working heh heh heh) gathering up all her genius into piles. Look for the book to come out the end o' 2008. There will be old and brand new Unlovable antics in the book so it'll be worth your while. To get you up to speed, you can pick up some past issues of unlovable on Funchicken.com. OK? Do it. So enough about Esther, have you bought some of my art yet? Well get on that, please. La Luz de Jesus.
