New Comic Day!! This week the hit NBC television series Chuck comes to comics as Chuck Bartowski and his friends are about to take the world by storm—literally! Why highlight this book? For one, it’s a cool show so it is worth a look! But mostly, it has art by one of our favorites - the talented Phil Noto!! (note: okay, it’s just one page of Noto art).  There is also a ton of new trades and Invincible #50!!! What else shipped?

For many of us, 2008 is the toughest year of our lives. Some of our friends and loved ones are art war and wondering why. Jobs are being lost left and right. Bills are getting tough to pay with gas at almost $4 a gallon and rising. Our homes have lost their value. Much of the world looks down upon our country … oh man, we can go on and on. This is a scary time both in business and personal lives and much of it is related to politics. Is it wise for a business to get involved? Most probably not. However, Überbot isn’t just a place to buy and sell goods. It is a part of the community and culture of our town and these things are greatly effected by the political landscape. With so much at stake, this year is truly the most important year on so many levels. We need our economy back. We need to rebuild a sense of self and our standing in the world. To us, there has never been a clearer choice.

The message of Hope that follows Barack Obama has expressed itself in the streets with the most amazing art movement. Überbot would like to continue this movement with your help! We are asking artists to send us their Obama artwork. We will pick the most impressive work and make sure it gets out into the world so that all of our words and feelings are expressed. Be active!
