This week is the final entry for The Harvey Awards, where we’ve been nominated in the webcomics category. Also there’s still time to tell your local comics shop to order BUCKO: The Hardcover from Dark Horse Comics!

    Which we’ve seen and it’s beautiful. Solid, too, with tons of BONUS material we worked up for this edition. Here’s the solicit info:

    After discovering a dead body in an office bathroom, hungover job interviewee Rich “Bucko” Richardson becomes suspected of the murder. What he thinks is a quest to find the real killer turns into a weeklong romp through the wilds of Portland, Oregon, complete with bike-mounted cover bands, steampunk Makers, Juggalos, SuicideGirls, meth heads, so much absinthe, and an entire city made of books. After taking the Internet by storm, Jeff Parker and Erika Moen’s dirty, funny murder mystery is now the most hilarious book in comic shops!

    *Includes brand-new strips, commentary, and info on the real-life inspirations for Bucko!

    If you’re not near a comics shop, you can order from TFAW.COM or your preferred online retailer. But you can also call your area store and tell them it’s publication date is September 19th and the Diamond Previews Code is MAY120062. I think we’re still in time for Final Order CutOff on that, so call once the Harveys email is sent.

    And whew, you’re all done Buckoing on a Tuesday. Thanks so much!
