THURSDAY 3/23

Inamorata
Inamorata is an anthology of graphic novelist Michael Manning's darkly erotic artwork. With an ultragraphic pen and ink signature style, Manning's drawings are ripe with cock rings, rim jobs, anal dildos, futuristic leather babes, and ball gags. It's like what you would draw in your seventh grade notebook—if you were a master draughtsman who had frequented every sex club in New York City for three decades.

Mykel Board
Here's what Ian McKaye had to say about Board's writing: "I never really knew what to make of Mykel's work, but somewhere in there, buried in all of his boasts and bangs, was a punk rocker yelling... 'what the fuck?'!" I really hope Board didn't pay McKaye for that blurb. Reading Frenzy, 921 SW Oak, 274-1449, 7 pm, free
