Bumperboy Newsletter, July 2009
Hey there, Bumperfriends!
Here at Bumperboy headquarters, July always means a couple things. One, San Diego Comic-Con is coming up! And two, new Bumperboy items! Hooray!!
San Diego Comic-Con 2009
If you're a regular at Comic-Con, I'll be at my usual spot in the Small Press Pavilion, table O-16. I'll be debuting a couple new products which are featured later in this newsletter. Please come and say hello!
On Thursday, July 23, from 5-6pm, I will also be sketching and signing with San Francisco's Cartoon Art Museum for the annual Sketch-A-Thon. It's always a fun event and a great opportunity to purchase some sketches from talented artists of a large range! Drop by table #1930 for this event!

New Bumperboy Mini-Megazine, Debut Issue!
What's is this Mini-Megazine, you ask? Well, it's a handmade "magazine" that covers some of the "behind-the-scenes" of the Bumperboy universe that hasn't been included in any of the past Bumperboy comics. In this debut issue, you'll read silly interviews with Bumperboy and Bumperpup, do some fun activities (like connect-the-dots), get lessons on how to draw some of the characters, read about a neat craft, and even read a brand new comic featuring Gordy! You can purchase a copy right now, at the Bumperboy Shop!

New T-shirts and Infant Bodysuits
There's a couple of new apparel items in the Bumperboy Shop
too!
First, we have the newest adult t-shirt featuring Bumperboy and Bumperpup having a buddy-buddy moment...with a fistbump! These American Apparel t-shirts come in light blue and several sizes: Unisex Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, and Women's Medium and Large.
And for all the cute babies out there, we have brand new infant bodysuits! These heather grey bodysuits (also from American Apparel) feature a young Bumperboy messily enjoying his plate full of spaghetti. Perfect for the messy little ones in your life! They come in two sizes: 3-6 months, and 6-12 months.
Check out these items and more in the Bumperboy Shop!

Featured Artist at APAture 2009
Every year, the Kearny Street Workshop in San Francisco organizes a festival that showcases local Asian Pacific American talent in visual art, music, theater, spoken word, and dance. I'm proud to say that I've been chosen as this year's featured artist in the comics/zines genre! Hooray! This year the festival runs from September 17-26, 2009. The comics and crafts fair will be on the closing day of the APAture festival, September 26, and I shall be there! I hope you will too.

And that is all for now, Bumperfriends. Hope to see you in San Diego!
