The first ever STAPLE! is right around the corner, and it's set to be a bang up show!
We are pleased to announce the following additional special guests:
Terry Moore - Terry Moore began writing and drawing his award winning comic book series, Strangers In Paradise, in 1993. Since then he has produced over seventy five issue of the larger than life saga featuring Francine, Katchoo and the amazing cast of friends and lovers in their lives. Strangers In Paradise is published under Moore's own imprint, Abstract Studio and is one of the most successful self-published books in the comics industry. Today Strangers In Paradise is available in eight languages and is near the top of the charts for trade paperback sales worldwide. Celebrating ten years of Strangers In Paradise in 2003 Moore continues to enthrall readers with the adventures of Francine and Katchoo. Terry will be signing at the CBLDF's table at STAPLE!
