As seen in My, What a Busy Week!...

NERD PARTY—Conflict-of-interest alert! Mercury Editors Alison Hallett and Erik Henriksen put together a monthly night (well, semimonthly. Slackers.) combining two excellent local pastimes: comics and drinking in a basement. It's really fun! Tonight's Comics Underground hosts Dylan Meconis, Mike Russell, and other awesome comics creators. SARAH MIRK

Why, that's very nice of you, Sarah. Thanks! And now, just because I can, I'm going to reiterate that tonight's Comics Underground is going to be fucking awesome. In addition to Dylan Meconis and Mike Russell, we've also got Ryan Alexander-Tanner, who'll be presenting some truly outstanding comics made by small children (a surprising number of which contain sex, violence, and Captain Picard), as well as Ron Chan and Sean Kelley, who'll be showing off some of the hilarious strips from their webcomic Roy's Boys. It's gonna be a lot of fun, and every single one of you should come. More info, should you require it, is here.
