Some of you might know that one of my other jobs besides the L.W.A. is being a part of Challengers Comics + Conversation, an award-winning comic shop in Chicago. This Saturday is a big day for a lot of comic shops because it's Free Comic Book Day. You read that right, FREE. We mean it. Lots of shops participate and all you have to do is visit and make a selection from the number of special Free Comic Book Day books. In honor of this weekend's festivities, here's a cool tutorial I found about turning comic books into envelopes. Enjoy, and if you can, try out your local comic shop tomorrow. Even if you hate the book, you'll have some cool looking mail art supply for free.

Comic Book Envelopes
Kathy Zadrozny
Vices included vintage cameras, red wine, dusty mystery books, vintage detective radio shows, silent movies and cupcakes.
This is so funny because this is exactly what I was planning to do with my free comic book!!

That's very cool! I hope my tutorial helps you out and let me know if you've got any questions.

Two good reasons to celebrate Free Comic Book Day!
Also a good day to use the Batman stamps . . . love them . . . especially the round seal ones on the left. Hope everyone knows they are there. My local Postmaster said people were tossing them away, unaware that they, too, are stamps, not just stickers!

That should go quite nicely with my Canadian Superman stamps... Hmm.. Superman stamps versus Batman stamps just before the Superman Vs. Batman movie... I smell a conspiracy!
