Jason Shiga Signing and Presentation, March 20th!

March 10th, 2010 · Events, Store News

Jason Shiga Meanwhile March 20th!

Meanwhile is the world’s first interactive comic. It is up to YOU, the reader, to decide how the story unfolds. Using an innovative system of tabs and tubes, readers can follow the story right, left, up, down, around in circles or even off the
page! Puzzles, clues, and even hidden codes lead the reader to secret pages, which offer even more adventures to explore in parallel universes!

Comic Relief sold the very first copy of Meanwhile in the late 90’s, back when it was a self published, hand cut minicomic. Please join Jason as he returns to the scene of the crime for a reception and book signing to celebrate the book’s publication and national release.  There will be wine, beer, snacks, a slideshow about the making of the book, older versions of Meanwhile, and a paper calculator for people to play with!

Saturday, March 20th, 7 to 9pm!

Comic Relief, 2026 Shattuck Ave, Berkeley, CA - 510.843.5002
