HAPPY NATIONAL FORTUNE COOKIE DAY / FRIDAY THE 13TH!

'Tis a joyous day!  According to HolidayInsights.com, "it's pretty clear that the Fortune Cookie did not originate in China. Rather, it was invented in California. There appears to be some uncertainty over who invented it. Some historical references suggest it was Makoto Hagiwara who invented the fortune cookie at the Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco in 1914. Others believe that David Jung, founder of the Hong Kong Noodle Company, was the first to make fortune cookies in Los Angeles in the 1920s."  Fun facts!

Plus, here's a sneak peek at the coolest page I drew for "The Lucky Penny:"

The Lucky Penny is Coming!

The Lucky Penny Here's the cover for "The Lucky Penny," my newest mini comic!  I spent a stupid amount of time searching for the right fonts they use on the penny, because the date font is different than the font at the top.

You can buy "The Lucky Penny" tomorrow for $1.99 and get your own special lucky penny to protect you from the evils of Friday the 13th!  Go to Carmine Street Comics from 7pm-9pm and I'll hand out FREE FORTUNE and MISFORTUNE COOKIES for National Fortune Cookie Day.  Get a special Misfortune Cookie Card for a friend, and/or a misfortune cookie drawing.  You can pick up a copy of "The Misfortune Cookie" and "Mindy Indy's Daily Misfortune and Flipbook" if you haven't already.  The perfect way to scare the sh!t out of your superstitious friends this Friday the 13th :D

When I had longer hair, this was much more of a threat.  But I still think about it.  Had some pretty close calls....
