Cartoon Art MuseumMedia Release -- The Cartoon Art Museum hosts freelance artist and cartoonist Brian Andersen on Saturday, June 20, 2009 from 1pm to 3pm as part of its ongoing Cartoonist-in-Residence program. Museum visitors will be offered the chance to talk to him about his comics and watch Andersen at work.

Brian Andersen is the super nerdy, super flirty, indie comic book creator behind such colorful comics as So Duper Duper, Reignbow & Dee-Va and Unbashedly Billie. Under his itty bitty comic "company" (CBG Comics), he's also published works by other creators, such as Rick Worley's A Waste of Time and the trade paperback collection of living comic book legend Trina Robbins's 1980s series California Girls.

Aside from the upcoming eighth issue of So Super Duper (out soon, he hopes), Brian also has a second issue of Reignbow & Dee-Va on its way and three brand new comics, Sex & The Superhero, Loser 80 and a six-page free mini comic called Saint Carrie of the Divine Pageant, which is available on his website. Yay! Creating comics is fun, kiddies!

Brian hopes you get a smirk, a smile, or a slight laugh from at least one of his meager comic creations! Find out more about Brian's fabulous works by visiting www.sosuperduper.com. You can also catch free So Super Duper pages twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday) on Newsarama.com/blog. :) Groovy!

This event is free and open to the public.
