OFFICIAL TABLOIA MAILER #2734a<\/p>\n

Hello again, Tabloia fans! Here we go again
\nwith another long, long, update of Tabloia-
\nrelated, unsolicited SPAM! I mean FUN!<\/p>\n

Incompetent as we are in the arenas of
\ncomputers and emailing, we thought and
\nhoped we had figured out how to send you
\nan email last week! But through
\ninvestigative efforts, we’ve since learned what
\na piss-poor, technology-illiterate company this
\nis! If for some reason you DID already get this
\nemail, please disregard the old one!<\/p>\n

* * * * * * *<\/p>\n

ITEM OF EXCITING NOTE!<\/p>\n

At last! The eagerly anticipated, humongous,
\ntreasury-sized 9″x13″ DORIS DANGER
\nSEEKS…WHERE GIANT MONSTERS
\nCREEP AND STOMP ships to stores!
\nWhen? IT ALREADY DID! Last
\nWednesday, January 26, 2006!
\nThey’re bound to sell out quick, because
\norders were so small, there simply aren’t any
\ncopies anywhere! Best to get up right now,
\ngrab your keys, leave your computer on, put
\non some pants! Bring some nonperishable
\nfood, and maybe a sleeping bag! Get to your
\nclosest comic shop, wait in front of their door
\n(like you would wait for rock concert tickets
\nto go on sale), and be ready to pick up their
\nonly copy of DORIS DANGER, the moment
\nit’s put on their shelves! Product description
\nbelow!<\/p>\n

Special thanks goes out to Wesley Ruff,
\nfor his hard work and dedication with
\nthis issue’s logos, layouts and design, and
\ngreat cover colors (included, in this very
\nemail! Click on the attachment)!!<\/p>\n

* * * * * * *<\/p>\n

IMPORTANT WEBSITE UPDATE!<\/p>\n

Nothing is updated! It still looks exactly as
\nit has for the last seven months! It doesn’t
\neven have any info on our latest book,
\nlet alone an image of the cover, even
\nthough it’s already shipped! The site looks
\nabandoned! All the info is grossly out of
\ndate! Useless! But we’re getting
\nREALLY close! And you won’t believe
\nall the unbelievable new additions in
\nstore for you! Keep checking back every
\ncouple hours! You won’t be sorry!<\/p>\n

* * * * * * *<\/p>\n

APPEARANCES IN FEBRUARY!<\/p>\n

What good news! For the second year in a
\nrow, Chris will be in the (cheapest seat
\navailable) “Artist Alley” at San Francisco’s
\nWONDER-CON Feb 10-12! Need info? Go
\nto http:\/\/www.comic-con.org\/wc.
\nSo if you’re one of the lucky few who were
\nbrave enough to approach Chris last year,
\nand he gave you a free sketch, he asked us to
\napologize, and let you know he’s happy to try
\nagain and draw an even better sketch for you
\nthis year, if you’ll only give him the chance!<\/p>\n

Chris will also be in the “Starving Artist
\nAlley” of Orlando’s MEGA-CON Feb 24-26!
\nHttp:\/\/www.megaconvention.com.<\/p>\n

We know there are about three Tabloia
\nfans (if we’re lucky) who live somewhere far
\nfrom these geographic areas, and we sincerely
\napologize to you three! Hopefully we’ll be
\nheaded your way soon!<\/p>\n

* * * * * * *<\/p>\n

THE LUMP TRADE PAPERBACK!
\nThis long-awaited item will ship to stores
\nJune 2006! Phenomenal Tabloia cover artist
\nDamon Thompson has returned in gorgeous
\nred, black and white! Chris is frantically
\n(and egocentrically) compiling interviews,
\nsketches, page layouts, secret messages, and
\nessays, to bulk the book up to a wasteful 152
\npages! That’s like fifty non-stop pages of
\nuseless waste! Just for you, fans!<\/p>\n

* * * * * * *<\/p>\n
