Last weekend was the always excellent APE (Alternative Press Expo) event in San Francisco. Here are my photos from Friday’s APE Vendor Party which took place at San Francisco’s lengendary undergroud comics publisher Last Gasp.

I also shot these photos on Saturday and Sunday at the actual APE event.

It was great seeing everyone, especially the artists who traveled to San Francisco to be at APE. We gave out a bunch of Laughing Squid stickers, postcards and our new hosting flyer, as well as hooking up people with some Laughing Squid t-shirts.

Next up…Comic-Con in July.
