*THE K CHRONICLES WINS THE 2007 GLYPH AWARD FOR BEST COMIC STRIP!!
T'was a fine weekend in Philly as my li'l ol' strip won for the second straight year. What made it super special was that the award was presented to me by my Cartoonists With Attitude co-horts Mikhaela Reid and Masheka Wood. I also took pictures of my own ass as I went onstage for the award.

The awards ceremony and ECBACC convention at Temple was a site to behold, as cartoonists of color flew in from all around the U.S. Folks like Kyle Baker, Dwayne McDuffie, Jamar Nicholas (who hosted), Larry Fuller and Jerry Craft were in the house. Also folks like Robert Roach of the Antidote Trust, John Jennings, Damian Duffy, Joseph Wheeler III and my good friend Professor William Foster.

Of course, I had to take in a little bit of local flavor. Jazz at Bob & Barbara's. Late night at WaWa. Tequila at Mad Mex. Comix drawn at the Last Drop. Art at the Philly Museum of Art (where Rocky ran up da stairs) Beer and bizarreness at Dirty Frank's. A cheesesteak (Whiz wit) at Pat's.

A big shout out to Brady Russell (and his cats), who let me crash at his pad over the weekend.

*ABOUT THE L.A. OBSERVATIONS STRIP..
There really is some great theater out here. One faithful K Chronicles reader turned me onto a play he's produced, Charlotte Salomon: Life or Theater. It's got one more weekend, so go check it out.
