We’re almost at the finish line. And you know what you should do to celebrate? Stop by the Gaslamp Breakfast Company for a Pancake Flight… and maybe some toast. Will we stop talking about toast before the con? Absolutely not, because we’ve gone completely loopy over here at the UBlog.
But you’re here for the news, so let’s get to that!
- As we’re talking about breakfast, let’s start with a deliciously sinister option. Artist Tom Bryski revealed a new batch of his “lost” Monster cereals, including a print for a fake cereal “Devilicious”. You can get a taste at #F-04 in Small Press.
