the Semana Negra festival is currently underway in Gijon, Spain. There was talk of me going this year, but I couldn't coordinate it with the rest of my tour which starts next week. They're casting a spotlight on 'autbiographical comics'. Here is the cover of the booklet that goes with it, with a panel from How to Be an Artist. The wife of bosom says they got it right on all three counts. I wrote about my previous appearance at the Semana Negra and the wonderful cider of Asturias in a post last October.
