Introducing…Spaz!

We were privileged last night to attend the launch event for the premiere edition of Spaz Comics, brainchild of editor/publisher Rik Sansone. The Mad Marchioness is represented in this volume as is Noah Diamond (I’ll Say She Is). The event was held at Forbidden Planet on lower Broadway in New York.
