More Fun than a Barrel of Monkeys

This weekend, Jay Piscpopo and the Capt'n Eli crew joined Chris Proulx of Double Midnight Comics and illustrator Jeremy McHugh at the 3rd Annual Manchester Boys and Girls Club Day for Kids in Manchester, New Hampshire. What an amazing event! Jay and Jeremy drew free sketches for hundreds of kids -- literally non-stop from 10:00 - 3:00! We handed out Capt'n Eli comics and Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli Collectible Card Games to kids of all ages (and a few monkeys....) and Chris provided free comics and buttons from Double Midnight. Check out photos HERE.

Speaking of kids: be sure to check Lori Henderson's write up about Capt'n Eli on Good Comics for Kids!
Look for Jay and the crew at Double Midnight's Granite State Comicon next Sunday!
