 by TDI-Reporters-Notebook on 8/17/2010 @ 8:03am | please reserve one for me |
 by Crenshaw Sepulveda on 8/17/2010 @ 9:35am | I understand that fredo wants a Kindle version donated to the public library. |
 by furslug1 on 8/17/2010 @ 10:45am | Can I get a hardback copy for my iPad, without Flash of course?
Seriously, do we order it from you or will it appear in a book or art store near me, soon? |
by furslug1 on 8/17/2010 @ 10:46am | Ooops, guess I should have read all of your post. I'd rather buy my copy at Tacoma Art Supply. |
 by captiveyak on 8/17/2010 @ 10:51am | I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy a copy. It seems like the kind of thing I ought to do. |
 by ElectricElliot on 8/17/2010 @ 11:21am | WOOOTTT!! Can't wait. I'd like a signed copy please! |
 by Droid16 on 8/17/2010 @ 11:59am | Reserve one for me. |
 by Erik on 8/17/2010 @ 12:08pm | I am in for one, two if it is allowed under the rules. |
 by The Jinxmedic on 8/17/2010 @ 12:10pm | Rules? |
 by Nick on 8/17/2010 @ 2:58pm | ... well I can't *not* buy one... count me in! |
by furslug1 on 8/17/2010 @ 6:00pm | Rules is Rules Jinxmedic, some peoples got rules for everything, others no rules for themselves, crazy world we live in. |
 by KevinFreitas on 8/17/2010 @ 6:35pm | Put me down for one! And congrats, RR! Welcome to the modern club of Tacoma artistic authors! Mark Monlux, Tom Llewellyn, and now you. Bravo! |
 by Dave_L on 8/17/2010 @ 6:52pm | But there is only one signed original Kalakala Tacomic. I hope it made the cut. You are going to attend the book-launch party aren't you? I'm in for a copy, as any friend of CLAW would be. BTW, did you CLAW people hoard-up all the black Micron pens from TAS? (Fortunately, P-Z in the Target Business District fixed me up.) |
 by NineInchNachos on 8/17/2010 @ 9:01pm | my friend the MysteryCoconut ( twitter.com/mysterycoconut ) is going to help me push this out as an e-book for iphone/ipad/applestore YES! |
by NineInchNachos on 8/17/2010 @ 10:13pm | only 1 rule...
NO REFUNDS! |
by NineInchNachos on 8/17/2010 @ 10:14pm | ha ha ha! |
by NineInchNachos on 8/17/2010 @ 10:41pm | Even so, Thanks for enduring my lame travel edition Tacomic! back next week with all new endorsements!

 by Mofo from the Hood on 8/18/2010 @ 7:29am | Does that price of $26.66 include a box of crayons and a toaster? |
by The Jinxmedic on 8/18/2010 @ 7:59am | Don't put the crayons in the toaster- you are supposed to eat them raw. (Higher vitamin profile that way.) |
by NineInchNachos on 8/18/2010 @ 1:31pm | Mofo, buying one of these books is an investment sure to increase in value, unlike say... a lichtenstein poster |
by Mofo from the Hood on 8/18/2010 @ 8:46pm | When Tacoman's start finding my crayola-ized and MFTH autographed Tacomics wheatpasted illegally all over downtown, people will scratch their head and say, "lichtenstein who?" |
 by fredo on 8/19/2010 @ 8:08am | Will the Tacomic book be more of a coffee table book, or more of a Captain Billy's Whiz-Bang that we used to keep in the outhouse? |
by NineInchNachos on 8/19/2010 @ 11:43am | 6x9 200+ pgs.
it's going to be epic... might not get you relaxed enough to be an effective bathroom book if you know what I mean. |
by Droid16 on 8/19/2010 @ 12:04pm | 6x9 feet or inches. I think some wall sized Tacomics would be cool. |
by Mofo from the Hood on 8/19/2010 @ 12:41pm | Epic size is 6 x 9 miles. |
by NineInchNachos on 8/19/2010 @ 3:03pm | This book will move you for miles. Which coincidently makes it the perfect book to read on the bus. |
 by JesseHillFan on 8/20/2010 @ 11:50pm | Where is King's Books located at ? |
by NineInchNachos on 8/21/2010 @ 8:55am | "King's Books is located in the historic Stadium District of Tacoma. The store is located one block from the Temple Theatre and four blocks from the historic Stadium High School. We have a myriad of used books, a selection of new books, and a lovely Rare Book Room. Also, we have convenient off-street parking.
If you're traveling on I-5, take the I-705/ City Center exit. Get in the right lane to follow the Schuster Parkway exit to the Stadium Way exit. Turn right at the light and follow Stadium Way up and past Stadium High to the first light. Turn left and continue three blocks (stay on your left at the three way intersection). We're just past the Temple Theatre on the right. If you're on 6th Ave, follow it past Wright Park towards downtown. After going downhill, turn left at the second stop sign which is St. Helen's. We are three and a half blocks on the left (just before the Temple Theatre). If you're coming in on Pacific Ave, turn left (going up the hill) onto 9th Ave. Take a right at Market St, which quickly turns into St. Helens Ave. We're located 6 blocks down on the left side (just before the Temple Theatre)." www.kingsbookstore.com/directions.html |

Join us for the release of RR Anderson's new collection 100 Tacomics: The Secular & Apolitical Cartoon Life of Tacoma and her Moral People(s). Collecting Anderson's work from the last four years, his political cartoons skewer local issues, politicians, celebrities, and other tomfoolery. Funded by the Tacoma Arts Commission.
