I'm a bit of a Paul Pope fan. Er...superfan. Tonight at Kid Robot in LA, there was a release party for Pope's Playmate November 1978... uh... figure.

My pal (and yours) (and former producer) (though he probably didn't produce for you, just for me)Alex Dervin headed over to KR on my behalf and grabbed me one. Alex Dervin, ladies and gents: a prince.

I picked up a Masked Karimbah from Pope at the KR booth during San Diego-- "for Henry," ostensibly-- and got to catch up a little bit, which was nice. I didn't know how hard these things would be to get, so I called in the, friend-favor with Alex, passing along that Henry loves Karimbah. Pope dedicated my Ms. November to him in the future. So, Henry of 2021, enjoy.

And thank your uncles Alex and Paul.

Next up: a piece or two from Pope's DKNY collection...
