Behind the jump are some show photos. The Winners circle will be posted later today as we are still prepping some pretty picture of the winning pieces. A big applause to everyone involved from artists to attendees to staff and promotions. We had a great time and the MUNNY shows are easily some of the funnest events each year. Thank you all for keeping them successful. Big Big Love!!

The Munnyocalypse has come to an end and all of the votes have been counted! If you were there, you will live to tell the tale. If you weren’t there … well, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow afternoon for a full post of winners, honorable mentions, the Top 10 list and, of course, loads and loads and loads of photos! Yes, we’re bastards for making you wait. We know.

With the Munnyocalypse coming up in a few weeks, we thought it would be fun to put together a little event T-shirt featuring all of the fantastic artists that have joined the rockin’ show! You can see the front of the shirt after the jump. The back will feature the artist names just like cities on a tour shirt. To make this happen, we need artists that will be submitting a MUNNY to our show to drop us a line so we can get the shirt ready for print! If we don’t get enough names in advance, we won’t be able to print the shirt. If you want in, just email us at steve [at] uberbotrocks.com and give us your name. That’s it! Easy pleasey.

New book day! Yes, it is a day late due to labor day. There are a few books we have to read this week. We also noticed Boys #22 is out. Number 22?? Wow, that book has been moving along. We love Ennis and Robertson but we gave up on that one 15 issues ago. Has it been good? Should we catch up? Curious.

Oh my, how the years go by. Some years are harder than others and 2008 has been a tough year for just about everyone. However, we are proud to say that we stand with our customers, helping when we can and offering our ears when they are needed. In turn, all of you keep us propped up and we love and appreciate you for it. We truly think of all of you as part of our family and today is the day we reflect on that most.
We now enter Uberbot year 4! We’ll take a hint from the political world and say that the future is all about change! We are very excited to make things bigger and better and we want to make all of you even more excited to be a part of the unique and special world of Uberbot! Thanks for standing with us! Year 5 here we come! Put on your tight pants!!
XXOO - Team Überbot!
