Did you know Chris Mars has an art book coming out? Because I didn’t

Because I am a giant book nerd, I was doing some random browsing on Amazon.com today when I stumbled across an art book my Chris Mars. Holy Hannah, how cool is that?

After some investigation, I discovered the book was being put out by Last Gasp a cool little press that publishes underground comics. So that’s like double-plus cool points.

Also, if you pre-order the book at Amazon you’ll save 5% off the $26.40 price, which is a freaking steal for a nice artbook.

Video Tuesday — Popular Creeps

Posted by Jodi | Filed under Seen Your Video

I am not all that familiar with the solo careers of Bob Stinson, Slim Dunlap or Chris Mars. I have a vague notion of Tommy’s post-’Mats career. And well, Paul. . .

What I do know is that I love Mars’ song “Popular Creeps.” I only discovered this song because it was used as the theme for Mary Lucia’s Popular Creeps show when she was at Rev 105.

Here’s a video of the song.

P.S. In case you missed it. Spiteful Michael has an extensive collection of Mars’ art online.
