I’ll mostly be at the Last Kiss booth (2302) the rest of the con. But I will be at the World Famous Comics booth (5560) from 3:30-5:30 Saturday (July 14) and 1-3 p.m. Sunday (July 15.) Come see me if you can. And get a free Last Kiss tattoo.
Comic-Con International is early this year—July 12-15. But the Last Kiss Entertainment booth is the same as last year—Booth #2302. It’s near the middle of the con floor, close to one of the front doors. So it’s easy to find.
I’ll be at the Last Kiss booth roughly 39,000 hours a day…eagerly waiting to talk to you…and any other unwary souls who wander by. So come by.
We’re giving away Last Kiss (temporary) tattoos this year. They’re free to members of my Last Kiss mailing list. (Three times a week, I e-mail Last Kiss comics to list members.) Join now or at the convention.

How much merchandise will I have at my booth (#2302) at Comic-Con International?
A truckload of Last Kiss T-shirts. A mountain of Last Kiss tote bags. And a huge heap of other goodies such as Last Kiss sticky notebooks, art prints, mugs, magnets and more.
In short, a lot!
Even so, I can’t take everything. So if you’d like any of the following wonderful things, contact me by this Saturday, July 7, 9 p.m. PDT. Otherwise, I may not be taking them to San Diego.
Last Kiss #2
My favorite issue (#2) from my Last Kiss comic book series. It’s the “Dick Giordano issue” and it leads off with all-new Giordano art for “Widow Ms. Muffet” – the story of a little girl who wants to grow up and become a rich widow. The issue also features reprints of two Giordano stories from the 1950’s-60’s (with hilarious new dialogue by John Lustig). Plus an interview with Giordano about why doing romance comics is so difficult; the winning stories in the reader writing contest; and the ultimate story of amnesia, archeology and runaway lust “Remember to Forget Me” 48 pages of fun! Cover by Giordano.
I only have a few copies left. $14. (Autographs free.) E-mail me here.
The Virgin Project
Creators 
Kevin Boze and Stasia Kato often sell copies of The Virgin Project at my booth. They’re not coming this year, but if you want a signed copy (by Kevin) at a great price $17 for either Volume 1 or Volume 2. $30 for the set. I can’t recommend these books highly enough. It’s absolutely amazing stuff—true tales, told as short comic book stories. Some of these are hilarious. Some of them of them are horrifying. You can read more about VP, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 on Amazon. On Amazon they sell for $22.95 each. So this is a great chance to pick up autographed copies. E-mail me here.

Think Last Kiss is outlandish fun? Well, so were many of the original romance comics.
“Flip” Landers is spoiled worse than last month’s milk. Men are eager to give her everything she wants–and she despises them because of it. “I wanted a man…strong enough to make me want to let him have his way!” She’s the girlfriend from Hell that your mother warned you about.
“I had to be Tamed!” was originally printed in UNTAMED LOVE, 1950.

Last Kiss specializes in outrageous, sexually charged, single-panel gags. But, for the next few weeks, that’s going to change.
Starting June 27, there will still be plenty of outrageous humor (and some sexual innuendos), but Last Kiss creator John Lustig is going long and wide with a 10-part storyline featuring perhaps the unlikeliest hero in comics:
“Martha StewTart…Domestic Superhero.”
“Most of my current readers have never seen this story,” said Lustig. “But back in 2001 a black-and-white version of ‘Martha StewTart’ appeared in my Last Kiss comic book series. It was easily one of the most popular stories in the series.”
The story shows how Martha—once a homemaker who’d need a cookbook and massive luck just to boil water—gains superpowers that turn her into a crazed, culinary superhero.
“In a way, she’s really more of a super villain,” explained Lustig. “She totally loses touch with reality. What she does to her poor husband is loony, but definitely criminal.”
