Pre-order the upcoming ultimate rock poster book that spawned from the ultimate rock poster website: Gigposters. I think we have a few pages in there too. And a free Jay Ryan print never hurt anyone.

Ryan and I were honored to be part of the epic book Beasts! ... and now we're excited to see Beasts! 2, which I am sure will knock our socks off as well. Stay in the loop here.

Oh, and don't forget to check out the cool paperback version of Beasts! coming soon.

The Weretiger (above) is by A.J. Fosik.

Chip Kidd has a new website (finally!) titled Good Is Dead, which consists of his portfolio, blog, speaking engagements and other nuggets of goodness. I'm very excited about all of this, as I believe Chip is one of the all-time greats. If you don't own this, you need to.

Mmmmm ... first cupcakes, now this: Fantagraphics just announced their new Flora book, arriving in stores next year. If anyone knows where to find a time machine, let us know.

Die Gestalten Verlag just released Playful Type, which may or may not have a few IC goodies within its pages.

All Known Metal Bands by Dan Nelson is a McSweeney's book featuring the names of over 50,000 metal bands. I saw it on the shelves at Easy Street and had to own it. It was only $17 and even features this band. Not bad at all. Oh, and you'd never guess how many bands are named Nemesis.
