Kid Mafia Digest by Michael DeForge
The digest collects Kid Mafia issues #1 – 3. The original three zines are long sold out and have never been collected. The digest covers are brand new and designed by Michael especially for this volume.

We here at Secret Headquarters are huge fans of Michael DeForge and are honored to be working with him again after publishing his zine, Incinerator, in 2012. Michael is one of the most innovative and talented cartoonists in the world, and we know that you’ll love his work as much as we do.

SMOKIN’ BONES: ART BY REGINALD PÉAN
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7th
BEGINNING AT 7pm

Reginald Péan was born and raised in Queens. We’ve heard that Reginald sleeps in a coffin. A coffin made of wizard bones. He wears a black hooded bathrobe around town. It’s made of terry cloth. When Reginald goes bowling, it’s with an actual crystal ball. He has an extensive collection of googly-eyed Pink Panthers. All of this sorcery has helped to inform Reginald’s art. His images of black panthers and women along side his delightful Grim Creeper are eerie and humorous.

Secret Headquarters is proud to have Reginald Péan’s wonderfully sinister work on display for the month of February. We will have Smokin’ Bones, a zine collecting Péan’s work, as well as a limited edition patch designed exclusively for SHQ.

Enjoy drinks and possibly a fog machine starting at 7pm. Perhaps Reginald got himself an airplane ticket to join us.

You can check out more of his work here.
