I've been nominated for a Shuster Award.

Okay, right off the bat, not JUST me, but a whole bunch of artists from the region.

It's a nomination for the Gene Day Self-Publishing category of Canada's Shuster Awards ( comic book industry).
This was for the comic called Ultimate Power Duo --" Space Joe: Ad Astra".
The book was an anthology, with individual artists contributing to stories based on songs from the album. Riley Rosomo, Elaine Will, amongst others.

I stumbled across the news tonite on the band's Facebook page, as it was revealed about a week ago.
Quite a delightful surprise.
(The Shusters are on par with the famed Eagle Awards for comics, I'm told.)

Honestly, I don't know!
I was sent a small number of copies (5), and I have only a few left. I cannot see any links or store locations on the UPD FB page. They seem to only be selling it at local Saskatoon comic shops, at whatever gigs the band plays at, and at some of the local comic conventions. They must be sitting on a LOT of copies....
