I am doing a Kickstarter Fundraiser to help pay printing and shipping on the El Vocho graphic novel. You can pledge $15 to get the book, more gets you a painting. And, I just added this reward:
Event. A live performance with "The Dick Nixon Experience", Steve's cow punk band. Event includes one graphic novel, choose from El Vocho, Bughouse, 40 Hour Man or Scalawag. Complimentary mezcal will be served. Venue to be announced, San Francisco Bay Area. Mezcal is, of course, the smokey smooth agave distilled spirit that embodies the mystique of Oaxaca.

El Vocho Endpapers
Just put together the endpapers (inside cover) image for El Vocho -- this will be in the edition that appears in comics shops.
I took the photo at a VOCHO (VW Bug) show in the spring of '08 in Oaxaca. The spooky goon of course is Cliff, iconic bad guy. He looks a lot like I would if I gained a few pounds, got a trench coat and cool hat, and started rubbing people out. Click on image to see it bigger.

A prominent comics news site tells me they had a problem with the embed code for the EL VOCHO theme song, Ballad of the Bug. Let's see how this works.
Whoa! It works. Cool.
