Mermin 3 in Previews + Upcoming Convention Schedule

Mermin Book 3: Deep Dive is in the current issue of Diamond's Previews catalog!

No one knows much about Mer, the underwater kingdom where Mermin the Merman was born, but due to a rising conflict with the people of Atlantis, Mermin is needed back home immediately. Which means that his human friends get to accompany him and see all the aquatic wonders of Mer. But once again, Mermin is tight-lipped about his past - even when it's swimming right in front of him. And there are enemies lurking in the seedier depths of Mer who've got their sights set not only on Mermin, but on Pete and his friends!

This volume is a good jumping-on point for new readers, but you've also got a few months to catch up if you haven't read volumes 1 or 2 yet!  Here's a 6-page preview on Comics Alliance.  The Diamond order code is MAY141499.  Tell your local comic shop that you want it!  It's also up for preorder from online retailers like Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

I've also got a couple conventions coming up this month!  First, May 10-11, I'll be at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival! I'll be on the second floor at table 209.  Here's a map, this con is packed with great cartoonists!  Also, Saturday I'll be participating in the TCAF Draw-Off!

10am-11am: TCAF Draw-Off!
2 teams enter… but only 1 shall leave! Join cartoonists Jeremy Sorese (Little Heart), Liz Prince (Alone Forever), Britt Wilson (The Greatest Book On Earth), Joey Weiser (Mermin), as they draw against each other (with audience participation!) in a battle of the sharpies! Hosted by R. Sikoryak (Masterpiece Comics)

I'm a little nervous about competing against these titans, but it'll be fun!  Come by and give me your support!  Here's a list of all of TCAF's programming.

Then the next weekend, May 17-18, I'll be at SC Comicon in Greenville, South Carolina!  I'm excited about this new show, it seems like it's going to have a lot of cool folks at it.  Similar to Heroes Con, I'll be selling my books and minis as well as $10 ink drawings.  See you there!
