---Press Release from Floating Worlds Comics
This September we are proud to host an art exhibit and book release
party with one of our favorite local artists, Julia Gfrörer. The month
long art exhibit will include Julia’s original comic pages and
illustrations.
Julia will also debut her latest comic, the first chapter of Black Is
The Color. This new book is about cruelty, sarcasm, loneliness, gay
sailors, lactating mermaids, and salty fluids of all kinds. You could
read it for free at www.studygroupcomics.com, but probably not in the bathtub (which is the best place to read it).
This book will be published by Thuban Press in September 2012, and it
is 32 pages long and measures 5.5″x8.5″. It contains intense imagery
and is intended for mature readers only.

WHEN: Thursday, September 6th, 6-10pm; artwork on display until Sept. 30
