There's a whole gang of new stickers available in the fudge store. Get over there soon too cuz i'm sitting on about 11,000 stickers over here and need to make some room for the catbox!

-----

If you're into flip flops, boy are you going to be pleased. I was fortunate enough to design the new Creedler catalogue for the good folks over at Volcom. At some point there will be a pair of Fight Scene flip flops available, suitable for all aspects of lazing around.
You can check them out in the catalogue.

-----

Volcom is also on the cusp of releasing the much anticipated, Volcomics book. This will be an extra sweet little item, in the tradition of old Freak Brothers comics. The book will include contributions from Jim Phillips, VCJ, Neil Blender, Ethan Anderson, Jinx, Mike Aho, Michael Sieben, Todd Bratrud, Kill Pixie, Lori D, 33, BGM, Mel Kadel, myself and more. I also collaborated on some comics for the book with Eddie Glass and Tom Davies from Nebula, ..Ariel Pink from Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, ..and Jared Warren and Coady Willis from Big Business.

We'll be hitting the road for the Volcomics show as well, and everyone who attends the opening will get a free copy of the book.

The first show will open May 19, 8:00 pm, at the Fuse Gallery, 93 2nd Ave. New York City.

Additionally, the show will be touring:
June 1st, the Volcom LA store on Labrea.
Thursday June 28, at the Truman Brewery in London.
Friday July 20, at Claska in Tokyo.
Saturday July 14, at Space Gallery in San Francisco.

Tony Larson and Andy Mueller, two very esteemed gentlemen from the Art Dump paid a visit to us at the cabin recently. We made some coffee, strolled them down to the old cliff where people disguard their abandoned appliances, flipped through some drawings, and discussed the finer points of this and that for a feature they're putting together in the upcoming issue of Monster Children out of Australia. The issue will also include a bonus dvd that should be a real slick treat.

-----

Keep an eye out for the June issue of Art Review magazine. Double Dude and The Pen will make it's 2-page comic debut.

-----

There's a line of interesting new shirts to browse through from Blood is the New Black.

-----

Anyone interested in purchasing original drawings should pay a visit to the Richard Heller Gallery. There are selected available drawings on the site, but he's usually got a good grip of others on hand if you're ever in the neighborhood.

-----

I know i've been pulling your chain for a while about this, ..but stay with me....
SOON to be released with Narrow Books,
"Hey Fudge", 240 pages, b/w and color. Full color flexi-bind cover. There's a little preview of the cover and description in the fudge store.

Well shoot,
thanks for checking up on things.

travis fudge
