This is a special announcement for a probably very limited audience, but if anyone of you plans to go to the NEXTCOMIC Festival in Linz, Austria, this weekend, i will make a short special appearance there. Here are the details:

Harald Havas, a colleague and friend of mine, will hold a lecture on comics made in Austria, on Saturday March 5th, at 15:00 in the Ars Electronica Center in Linz. Since he will also touch upon the subject of Chicken Wings, I have offered to talk a little bit about it myself. So, if you’re in the area, or are planning to go there anyway, it would be great if you’d stop by!

I found this stuck to the windshield of my “Chicken Wings Mobile” a few weeks back after it was parked in front of a Target in Las Vegas.
It’s always nice to get a not from a fellow aviator. It seems they have strayed far from home because the “Atlantic Flyer” is on the East Coast, but hey, it’s Vegas!
Also thanks to the Flyer for still keeping Chuck around no matter what he does!

And the winners are…

…rustle, rustle, take card out of the envelope, pause for dramatic effect…

Linda Ketchersid from California and Sylvain Baertschi from Switzerland!

Congratulations to both of you! We will get in touch with you via email shortly!

We thank everybody who participated in our Christmas Special Raffle by ordering through our Online Shops!

‘Tis the season again! You know, when the Northern hemisphere is snowed upon and all the mail trucks and trains slow down to Santa’s average walking pace. So every year we have our obligatory Christmas special, with the intention to make you place your order with us early. This year, we thought we’d try something different

It works like this: Of all the orders we receive from now until December 8th, we randomly draw one customer each (one from our American Online Shop and one from our European Online Shop) and will give the lucky winners their money back! Everybody enters, no matter how big or small your order. All we’ll do is: We’ll be making a list, checking it twice, and find out who wins by the roll of the dice!

(If you’ve been naughty or nice this year, will not affect your chances of winning.)

So, shop away and give the gift of laughter! We’ve added quite a lot of new products (novelty and gift items) to both our shops. Be sure to check them out!

New iPhone app:

Also in the news: We have recently completed the iPhone version of our second book, which is now available through the iTunes Store.

Because “Full Throttle” is a bit smaller than “Think Big” and because the size restrictions for apps are not as low as they used to be, we managed to put the whole book, over 140 colorful strips, into one app.

It has all the great features as the other apps and lets you email your favorite strips to friends.

You can see a list of all our iPhone apps here.
