A Few More Notes On This Weekend’s Small Press Expo

* here's a link-filled general preview at Robot 6.

image* the SPX site has a lot of pertinent information up on its own behalf. This includes a list of show debuts, information about the weekend's Ignatz Awards ceremony, and a blog stuffed with guest announcements.

* Mike Rhode continues his interview series with Darryl Ayo, Dustin Harbin and Jen Sorensen. Michael Cavna of Comic Riffs chats with Domitille Collardey of Pizza Island.

* Lauren Weinstein talks about a downside of going to SPX.

* 2011 Ignatz host Dustin Harbin talks at length about where he'll be and what he'll be bringing.

* Chris Pitzer has a bunch of photos from SPX 2002 up, starting here. It's amazing how many people I don't recognize that seem to be big deals.

* Dan Nadel extols the virtues of the show and talks about PictureBox's presence there.

* Rob Clough recommends some artists to seek out at SPX. I'm more of a take-everything-in guy, but that's a good list. I will suggest tracking down Tom Galambos, who is sitting with Dan Zettwoch and Kevin Huizenga. Galambos will have new books for the first time in ten years.

* The Beat has a bunch of coverage here.

* finally, in the most important news of all, Barry and Leon at Secret Acres quell fears that the hosting hotel may have been damaged in the earthquake in a way that had an effect on the exhibition floor, or worse, the bar.
