Officially quitting Twitter within a week.

Seems as good a reason as any to post a new "where you can find me" graphic.

Oh hey! #introduction post!

My name is Ken. I have a small press publishing imprint: Nix Rock n Roll Comics, which you can check out at nixcomics.com

I'll be posting about comics, records, zines, and my dog.

Not yet available, because I'm waiting for a chance to put a "record night" together where I play all of my recent new Sketchbook Pic sleeve records. (Like maybe at the Herbert Cooper Gallery)...

But I'm proud of my 1st 9 panel grid effort, so I thought I'd share.

Finally unpacked my haul from my Austin trip! Stuff from STAPLE! 2024, End of an Ear, Uncomon Objects and more!
Read about it here!

first pic on the new phone... and it's a Lu Lu!

March 2024 Nix Comics Update:
A little late, I know! You'd think I could have wrote it up more quickly given the that I didn't do much comics related, but here's a partial picture of my B-Day haul from Shake It Records and the Northside Record Fair.

Dinosaurs in my notebook.

I haven't been posting much art lately. I haven't been inactive as much as unsatisfied.

That said, this quick sketch of Long John Hunter for a 12" painting to go with a test pressing of the Norton Records "Oo Wee Baby!" LP that I've been sitting on is pretty satisfying!

Today's Record Listening theme: "Covers that Hop Genre"
with notes, pics and videos! (Including... PERRY COMO!!???)

A walrus in my notebook

As promised: My "Detroit" themed playlist. With notes, pics, and some cool videos. (Don't miss the one at the end with Nikki Corvette and Ricky Rat of the Trash Brats!)

Today's prompt for record listening is "Detroit"

Playlist to follow at the end of the day.

Working to the Bo Diddley beat this morning.

Can you name some outside-Ohio record stores that have a nice selection of books/zines?

Or vice versa... Comics/zines shops that happen to have records?

Hey, I'm still going through all my old Nix Comics stuff, making room for new Nix Comics stuff. If you'd like copies of the first four issues of Nix Comics Quarterly for $10, free ship in the US, let me know.

I'd appreciate shares on this. They're good comics, but not doing anyone any good sitting in boxes in my office.

Email: ken at nixcomics dot com to work out the specifics.

Raise your hand if last night your smoke alarm gave three false alarms before you deactivated it and then you couldn't sleep because of fire related anxiety.

I guess it's still too early to have regrets over my day off, but there are still lots of obscure rockabilly artists I can scribble...

Happy Lucy-versary! Two years ago our sweet little girl came home with us from the Circleville area humane society.

Notebook bear.

He's a New York Dolls fan... Just looking for a fish.

Today my inner all had some thoughts about Mojo Nixon.

Compulsor wants to listen to all his records.

The Outsider is remembers a loud weirdo who managed to make it work.

My Vacant Brain is working with me today.

The giant concrete block is always silent while sucking in my morbid thoughts.
