A promotional poster-style comic advertising a book. A banner at the top reads "OUT TODAY!" In the center is a book cover titled "Bea Wolf" in large ornate red lettering, featuring a small illustration of a fierce child-like figure. Surrounding the cover are mock review blurbs attributed to figures like Neil Gaiman, Lemony Snicket, and Mary Poplin, praising the book as glorious, hilarious, and profound. Smaller text below explains that pre-orders this week are especially appreciated because they help get the book into more stores, and that pre-orderers get a signed copy. At the bottom, signing event details are listed: Scrawl Books in Reston on the 22nd, and Telegraph Arts & Comics in C'ville on the 25th.
Votey: A single panel showing a bearded man with shaggy orange-red hair, shirtless, leaning on a counter or desk. Above him a speech bubble reads "Thanks." He looks bashfully pleased, as if accepting the praise from the advertisement above.
