Set to Sea pg. 103
on June 28, 2010
After a year of talking about it, Eleanor and I are shopping for a house! Our current rental is splendid but oh-so-small. We’re both sick and tired of trashing our living room/studio/computer room every time we do some silkscreening or other messy projects. So, slowly but surely, we take another step into “adulthood.”
Edit: Just noticed that Fantagraphics has a preview/preorder page up now for the Set to Sea book!
Sorry, I haven’t kept up with your announcements, I’ve only read the comics. Does the publication of the book mean that Set to Sea is drawing to a close, or is the web updates just way behind? It doesn’t feel like it’s about to end, but maybe that’s just because you don’t really get a good feel for the pacing when you read one panel a day like this. Anyway, keep up the good work!
There’s still a good bit to go. The book hits stores around July 22nd, and the online version ought to wrap up a little while later. The pacing should read better in book for, that was one of the reasons I relaunched the webcomic a while back, because I was tweaking the pacing. Thanks for reading!
That’s the coolest preview — I just watched it twice. The book looks like a bibliophile’s dream, beautifully designed. I like how it makes the reader’s hands look as big as your hero’s.

Yeah, Drew!
This page is way after I lost track of SET TO SEA on the first go-round. I’m glad to hear that there’s a bunch more to come!
@Ann – Yeah, the preview is really cute! Thanks, I was trying to make a nice little package – books really feel like they need to justify their existence these days.
@Ayo – About 30 panels more, I think! Adjust your expectations accordingly.
