In other Nix Comics 15th Anniversary Party! news... Lucy is working hard on the score board for the Trivia Game!
See you Saturday night at Kafe Kerouac?
Thanks to Richard Sanford for the shout out in his weekly "Hey, Fred!" column about Columbus, Ohio goings on!

(If you want to know what's happening culturally in Columbus, I definitely recommend you give his substack a follow!)
Still only a hint, though. If it was teenage "Battle of the Bands" or something that guy easily be sitting on someone else's gear.
Looks like maybe the were "The Zephyrs." (Unless they were sitting on someone else's sign) Looks like there a couple of bands by that name on Discogs from that era.... But maybe that can narrow your search!
It was back at the fairgrounds the Past 2-3 years in a slightly nicer building. Parking was a pain though.
Im glad Bob found this new venue in the burbs!
Today's Gratitudes and Reflections on 15 years of Nix Comics: If I had to choose one "event" that shaped me and Nix Comics for the better, it would be that first year I exhibited at S.P.A.C.E.! Here's the story!
www.nixcomics.com/post/15-year...
Warning: Previous post Includes props and thank-yous to Matt Wyatt, Brian Kraft, Jim Morris of The Mug and Brush Barber Shop, Bourbon Street, Ken Fox and The Fleshtones (Official).
Day two of my reflections on 15 years of Nix Comics with accompanying gratitudes. This is actually an even that I've shared more than a few times over the years, but I think its worth saying again, especially cuz I think there's a cool new end-note to the story.
www.nixcomics.com/post/15-year...
With Specific thank-yous to Mike Heslop, Joseph Snyder, Jack Wilson, MT Promises, Ian Hummel, Erik L Cole, and I 'spose E. Gary Gygax!
As I prepare for the Nix Comics 15th anniversary, I'm getting reflective about all of the people, places, and events that have helped me get to this milestone. I'm going to try and post about one of these reflections a day leading up the 28th!

PPS: Don't forget to let me know if you're coming to the Nix Comics 15th Anniversary Party!
PS: So yeah... Head's up... There'll be a lot of this kinda tomfoolery next month.
Staging complete! I plan to start off each video pitch for 2026 Nix Comics with a suggested record pairing for my comics. For instance, Supersnazz's "Diode City" LP will set the proper tempo for reading any Nix Pub.
Please wish Kate and I a Happy Lucy-versary! Four years of this sweet girl in our life!
