Okay, so, out of the new batch, what is "hot" and what is "not?"
HOT:
Lyle's Achewater
Philippe for America
Patch
Pins
Actually, I'm pretty sure it's all hot.
COLD:
Blows the wind over my true love's grave.
COOLER THAN COOL:
Ice cold.

There are only three truly "new" things right now: Lyle shirt, SaniTaco shirt, and Vol IV pre-order. We will have a few more extremely sensual items ready in time for Christmas shopping.
One thing we haven't announced (until now) that is slated for early 2005: a collection of the blogs in printed, chronological, interwoven form. There's a lot of writing there that I think would be nicer to read in print. It's almost 250 pages when formatted.

I saw the "enlarged detail" link on the front page and thought that the label was a joke. Then when I came here and saw a "new merchandise" thread, I jumped to the conclusion that the store would actually be selling bottles of Liquid Banjo.
T-Shirts are cool, but they're not as cool as whisky. Oh well, I wouldn't have been able to have liquor shipped here to Kansas anyway.
I still give a hearty thumbs-up to the Lyle design and may have to hint the girlfriend that that would be a nice Christmas present.

I do surely dig that patch, though I wouldn't pay five of your American dollars for it. Even though I would like to be a visible supporter of emergency rabbit medical services as well as a declared Special Boy, er, girl.

For sure I am getting a Lyle T along with Vol iv's for my mother and I. Maybe I'll get round to an everybody dance T if they're still around.

Now there's some sweet news. This one time I thought about printing out all the strips and all the blogs and arranging them chronologically and hand-binding them into this deluxe mega-collection, but then I sort of fell asleep instead and had this dream where George Clooney and I were hanging out at a restaurant. True story.

I'm ordering the Lyle shirt in about five minutes, I'd say.
It's on!

Chris, you sexy graphic designer, you. The "Lyle's Achewater" label is genius.
Question the first: What is the "Genuine California" typeface and where did you get it?
Questions the second and third: Are those birds on either side of Lyle's portrait? And did you draw the ornamental frame yourself?
Thanking you, yours in most humble prostration, &c &c, I remain,
[ Franz. ]

Glad you like it. It seems popular so far.
1. It's called "Dyspepsia," and I don't know.
2. They are kind of tough, medieval chickens.
3. Yeah, that was a freehand Illustrator jobbo.

I got my book today - complete with drawing of a young RB in Chucks. I'm breathless in anticipation of the Lyle shirt.
