You may recall my strange and wonderful trip into Death Valley for Hi Fructose magazine. With issue #8 out on shelves, I thought you'd enjoy seeing the resulting photo. Bertie the World War Robot stands above, torn from the pages of Ashley Wood's comic book art. Crafted into toy form by Bigshot Toyworks and ThreeZero, Bertie is a masterpiece, created by a visionary artist and cutting edge artisans.

A special print edition of "Bertie the Pipebomb" will premiere Saturday July 12th at CoproNason Gallery in Santa Monica, CA. I'm very honored to be included in the Hi Fructose Group Art Exhibition, marking the 3rd anniversary of the magazine:

The exhibition features new work by Amy Sol (above) * Anthony Ausgang * Attaboy * Brian McCarty * Boomer * Brian Viveros * Chris Peters * Brian Despain * Chet Zar * Christopher Ryniak * Christian van Minnen * Dan Quintana * Daniel Lim * Dan May * Dave Cooper * David Stoupakis * Erik Alos * Esao Andrews * Germs * Gris Grimly * Jeff Gillette * Jeff McMillan * Jeff Soto * Jim Woodring * Josh Keyes * Keith Weesner * KMNDZ * Kukula* Lola * Luke Chueh * Makiko Sugawa * Mark Covell * Matt Dangler * Martin Witfooth * Michael Page * Michelle Mia Araujo * Naoto Hattori * Nathan Spoor Laurie Lipton * Noferin * Oksana Badrak * Ray Caesar * Shag * Scott Belcastro * Tin * Stella Im Hultberg * Travis Louie * Winston Smith * Xiaoqing Ding * Yoskay Yamamoto.

Coming up in two weeks is the ever-amazing San Diego Comic Con! Ashley Wood and I will be doing a signing together at Hi Fructose's booth. Day and time for this signing as well as a few others will be announced soon. Also being announced at Comic Con is a very exciting piece of news. Not to give away any surprises, it involves an upcoming collection of work from Baby Tattoo Books. I'll have the full scoop for you next month.

Hope you enjoy,
-Brian
