Comics we got at MICE! All are great!

• BE NOT AFRAID, by LSJM(?) Black, white, and red one-pager that’s like if the angel from Pet was giving you a Trump-era pep talk.
• Secret Black Woman, by Ingrid Pierre. Autobio about anti-black racism, anti-Asian racism, passing, and being biracial.
• Default, by JCJB. Poetry essay watercolor about fighting empire and suffering. We think Phosphor of hungryghosts would like this!
• Prompted: an educator’s response to generative AI in the classroom, by Caroline Hu. Science, chatbots, and college. We think erinptah would like this!
• Cannon Fodder, by Eric Alexander Arroyo. Queer mecha pilots in love during wartime. Got it for the sci-fi library; we have now purchased all three printings of this, haha.
• Maintenance, by Cryptozoology. “What if a robot liked it when their creator performed upkeep on them (in a sexual way) and they were both girls???” Grabbed for sci-fi library.
• Silhouette, by L/V. Navy blue Riso robot porn. May also end up in sci-fi library because the art is so gorgeous.

I would love to read that first one. Also, robot porn is nice. -Blushes and peeks out through his fingers.

Rogan: We can transcribe the first one for you pretty easy! ...after we rest up from the con a little. Give us a day or two!

And I own a fine collection of robo work, if I do say so myself!

I look forward to maybe being able to check some of these out from the sci-fi library, dang!

We will also likely be adding a first edition copy of Kate Bornstein and Caitlin Sullivan’s queer cyberpunk novel, “Nearly Roadkill,” because it’s out of print and wicked expensive but we found a little old lady selling it for cheap. (The second edition just came out but clearly has significant revisions.)

...we may have gone on a buying spree.

That moment of "I'm not throwing a real student under the bus by using one of their fake LLM-generated citations, I'm using one of the US government's fake LLM-generated citations" sure is something, huh?
