Tuggin’ my sleeve

Today is my last day as a res­i­dent of the glo­ri­ous city of Chicago. It’s been an amaz­ing and event­ful three or so years, but it’s time to turn in my CTA pass and dust off my driver’s license. I’m headed to more sim­ple plea­sures and syl­van sur­round­ings to seek who knows what des­tiny. For­tune favors the bold!

I’ll be back for the Comic Cons and the sum­mer fes­ti­vals, but I’ll return as a vis­i­tor. No place I’ve lived has such an allure for me, and such good friends to wel­come me back.

Since I may not have steady inter­net access for the next cou­ple of days, I want to remind you that Side: B hits stores this Wednesday.

There are also new comics up today at http://webcomicsnation.com/rscarbonneau

Now a day of pack­ing, clean­ing, and dri­ving awaits.

Farewell to my neigh­bor­hood, Rogers Park, which has treated me very well, all things con­sid­ered.

Fulton Street Collective Recap

Fri­day night Mandy and I had the plea­sure to party with the tal­ented artists of the Ful­ton Street Col­lec­tive.

Invited by my good friend Patrick Mor­ris­sey, who pimped out his stu­dio space for the event, we rocked it until about 4 am. I met some cool peo­ple and enjoyed some cul­ture for a minute. If you ever have the chance to attend one of their open houses, I strongly rec­om­mend it.

Some pic­tures of the “time” as well as Patrick’s art­work are below. More pics on my face­book page (link to the right).

Thanks to Patrick and the col­lec­tive for such a bomb time.
