Revolver is a quarterly comics anthology showcasing the comics of Salgood Sam - That’s Me!.

Revolver one is a 52 page full color trade paperback, seven short stories & assorted words & pictures, exploring diverse themes of mortality, belonging, and identity. Though some are parts of longer works all can be read and enjoyed as stand alone tales. You can see a full preview of the comics here, along with a YouTube flip through clip.

Available now from Amazon, CreateSpace ( i get the best royalty from this link by the way ), directly through me, and soon in finer participating bookstores and specialty shops [interested retailers should write me about wholesale orders]. Suggested US cover price is $15.

Digital!: When you order the book from me, you get a digital copy free. Or you can purchase a digital only edition directly from my site, high quality PDF & CBR, DRM free. Just $2 for the next two months (regular price for book one is $2.50)

But people want books! I know, me too. So along with the launch sale price on the digital edition, you can order a print edition for $15, CND, flat rate, from me via my site here. Until Dec 1st & i’ll pay the shipping!

Digital Subscriptions will be forthcoming, and print ones available in time as well, once i’ve delivered on more than one issue.

FYI The next two issues are all pretty much done. I’ve posted a preview of the cover for Revolver Two here & below. The next two issues collect short stories spanning the last 6 or so years along with some new material. With Book Four we begin publishing totally new works. Here’s the current publishing schedule.

UPDATE: Revolver gets some love from Jim Higgins on this weeks meltcast! it’s at the tail end of the show if you’re looking to skip to it. Worth listing to this show in general though.

I’d still worrying the wholesale discount tables, but my rates for US retailers are pretty much done, in case and clerks are reading. Write me if you’re interested in stocking Revolver.

Peter Stillman on society6 on Flickr.

I’ve added this portrait of Peter Stillman/author Paul Auster to the set of images you can order as prints or other items on society6
society6.com/SalgoodSam/Peter-Stillman_Print#

This was a commission for Steven Gettis for his Blog and art collection, Hey Oscar Wilde! It’s clobberin’ time!!! heyoscarwilde.com/salgood-sam-paul-auster/

The other new print on society6. This of one of my favorite images i’ve ever drawn. 

Sorting files on my drive, i came across the scans i’d made of a book about one of my favorite artists, Alberto Giacometti.

The book is long gone, a gift to an ex and I from my mother i think? Let it go in the brake up but made sure to make copies for myself. These are just some of the pages of portraits, I like his other work but I was taken with his portraits the most.

I also Love Paul Auster, and he translated a conversation between David Sylvester and Alberto Giacometti for The Guardian. Also read A Giacometti Portrait by James Lord, was a nice little read.

A Dragon, for my up coming Son of the Dragon project with Mark Sable. 

Some concept art for this book was at the top of the list of things to do outside of Dream Life, going to build up a three image set of posters for that. Did this and then had a brain storm for a background that’ll make it a great back cover or something? Plan is working, warm up sketch 01 has me excited…

I can’t really complain about Dream Life, i’m doing exactly what i want to with it. But the long current stretch of mostly more mundane reality rooted story line has me thirsting for fantasy again.

Think the next few things i post on society6 will be new works exclusively for the site.

Was just in Toronto, took this shot in an ally behind the house i was staying [near Roxton and Collage]. It’s probably next.

But i thought i’d also try to engage you all reading this. So, hey, what would you like to see me draw? Anything is cool to throw out there, let your imagination or desires rule. I could use the workout! You know, keep the brain on it’s toes! :)

I’ll pick the 3 or 4 most interesting to me and take a stab at them over the next month.

HIT ME!

Update: He he, i knew you’d say that @ marksable - i was thinking of a family portrait, but you ok with it going up on that site? 
misterlorde - Wrestler, hmm, maybe. Not something i’ve done a lot but those costumes are fun.
barbarianlove - hah. i like that. kind of reminds me of a cover i did for saint sinner the house of M rejected. I love doing old people, all my little lines are a boon on them!
