Today I had the pleasure of stopping in to my local comic book store and meeting Kalamazoo comic artist Stacy Roberts. She's responsible for the book "Thorny Grove and a Dash of Mythos" which tells the story of anthropomorphic, slightly edgy forest critters as they meet the dread elder god Cthulhu. It's a funny book that made its debut at this year's APE (Alternative Press Expo - http://www.comic-con.org/ape/index.php).
The one thing I've learned about comic book creators, especially the independent folks, is that they are all about supporting one another. Sharing links and calling attention to each other's work seems like something everyone does in the industry. I'm happy to share the work of anyone I come across, especially another Michigan comic book artist since we seem to be so few. If you're looking for a fresh entertaining read look no further than Stacy's work with Thorny Grove. You can find out more about her and her work at this address: http://thornygrove.blogspot.com/
Here's Stacy's illustration of the great Cthulhu!

Thanks for the props and can't wait to check out your book on the 10th! I'm spreading the word and will also see you at the con! Awesome stuff! Had a great time talking to a fellow artist and hanging out!
Thank you for spreading the word. Good luck with your continued work. I'll see you in the busy month of December!
