Super Top is the first comic I ever published and it is still my only entry into the &#8220;super hero&#8221; genre. It was originally printed in 2002 on a letter press in Minneapolis. The comic is embedded above, but is also available as a <a href="http://www.drownradio.com/media/comics/supertop/supertop.cbz">CBZ file</a>, <a href="http://www.drownradio.com/media/comics/supertop/supertop.zip">PNGs</a>, or on the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/docpopular/sets/72157622606290719/">flickr</a>hole.</p>
<p>When it was time to pick out which paper to print the comic on, I pointed to a box in the corner full of cardboard sheets asking &#8220;What are those?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Those are trash. They use them as filler when shipping paper. You can have &#8216;em.&#8221;<br />
Although the sheets were fairly thin, we would crank the press to get the art to leave indentations. </p>
<p>The cover of Super Top is one of my favorites. I bought some boxes of &#8220;Hello My Name Is&#8221; stickers and we printed the comics cover in them, then applied them to the covers, ran some more art, the trimmed them. The cover of Super Top had 5 colors; brown, red, blue, white, &#038; black!</p>
<p>Fun Fact, there were two alternate covers of this book. The retail cover had a blue sticker with red ink. The convention cover was a red sticker with blue ink.</p>
<p>About 1000 copies of SuperTop #1 were printed and sold. I only have less than ten copies left. In 2004 I write and drew 18 of the 20 pages for SuperTop #2. 5 years later and I still haven&#8217;t finished that damn book (which is sitting on my desk right now).</p>
