Dearest K Chronicles/(th)ink/Knight Life reader,
Holy @#%!! I’M A FATHER!!
I won’t bother with the details, but wanted to let y’all know that the fetus formerly known as Lil Gravy entered the building last week. He’s a big boy, and will be kicking my ass in no time.
Due to a few complications, he remains in the hospital. But we hope to have him home soon.
If there EVER was a time to order stuff, now would be that time.
*THE 500-PAGE K CHRONICLES COLLECTION…
..arrived in stores the day my son was born!! (great timing, cuz the book is dedicated to him Dark Horse has collected the first four K Chronicles collections and reformatted them nice and big, I added notes and sketches, and Kyle Baker did the introduction. What it amounts to is the must-have book of 2008!!
You can order the book thru my site (http://www.kchronicles.com), but I won’t be selling it outta my crib like the other books. So if you want ‘em signed, hit me up at the upcoming San Diego Comic Con.
Also keep in mind that the 500 page collection DOES NOT include the strips contained in the latest K Chronicles compendium “I Left My Arse in San Francisco”. So there.
*SLIDESHOW AT COMIC-CON (Thurs. July 24th Noon-1pm, rm 4)..
Not only will I be signing that big ol’ Dark Horse book at this year’s Comic Con, I’ll also be doing an all-new slideshow on Thursday, July 24th at noon (room 4). The panel’s called “FROM THE K CHRONICLES TO THE KNIGHT LIFE: KEITH KNIGHT” and .I’ll chronicle the development of all of my strips, present a preview of the Complete K Chronicles collection by Dark Horse, do a little drawing demo, and show some baby pics!!.
I’ll also be doing horrible caricatures to raise money for the Cartoon Art Museum on Friday July 25th from Noon -1pm..
SEE YOU THERE!!
REMEMBER: COMIC-CON GOES FROM WEDS.,7/23-SUN 7/27. AND YOU CAN ONLY REGISTER FOR IT ONLINE.
*KEEF CARTOON ART MUSEUM EXHIBITION
From now until Nov. 9th, the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco is hosting a 40 piece exhibition of my work. Starting with stuff from high school, up until the launch of my daily strip.
